While he was there...Oh Shawn you tell it so much better." Shawn laughs. "Shawn: Well see. I snuck up on Hilary right? And well.

She turns him around and she grabs him by the shirt. "Hilary: What do you know?" Shawn removes Hilary's hands from his shirt. "Shawn: Well. First of all. I know that the basic element of physics is matter. And if you were going to do a research paper you'd have to know something they taught on...I don't know. The first day." Shawn turns to walk away. Hilary grabs his arm. Shawn turns to her. "Hilary: How did you find out?" "Shawn: Well. I have my methods. And it helped that Morgan's roommates have the combined IQ of a raisin."

Shawn holds up his shoes. "Shawn: You will clean them with your tooth brush." Hilary lowers her head. "Shawn: Not side to side though. Not up and down. But a smooth circular motion." Shawn smiles as he looks back at Hilary. "Hilary: Do you want me to floss them too?" "Shawn: Oh we are not amused. And for this act of treason. His Highness would like you to read him a bedtime story." Shawn smiles. Hilary rolls her eyes. "Hilary: This is getting really annoying Shawn." Shawn shakes his head. "Shawn: Okey dokey. Have it your way. UNCLE PHIL AUNT VIV!" Hilary quickly puts the basket down. "Hilary: Okay. Okay. I'll do it." Hilary sits down on the edge of Shawn's bed. Shawn hands her a book.

High above Manhattan. And Spiderman goes. My spider sense is buzzing like a beehive." "Shawn: Uh. His Highness would like you to describe everything in the picture."

"Hilary: Okay. He's sitting on the edge of some stupid building and there are like wavy lines coming out of his head. So. So what? He's hot? Or his head smells or something? Anyway." Shawn puts his hand up. "Shawn: Dut. Hilary. That's his spidey sense." "Hilary: Okay. There's also something gross coming out of his wrist. Ew is this like the guy you don't want to be standing next to at a party or what? Anyway. This fat guy in a really bad suit grabs him and goes. Spiderman at last we meet again." "Shawn: Oh. That's Doctor Octopus. But his voice is alot deeper than that. Give it a try." "Hilary: -slightly deeper- At last we meet again." "Shawn: And its raspier." "Hilary: -slightly raspier.- At last we meet again." Shawn looks at Hilary. "Shawn: Come on baby. You doggin' it." "Hilary: -deeper and raspier.- At last we meet again!" Hilary looks at Shawn. "Hilary: Happy?" Shawn smiles and he looks at Hilary. "Shawn: You have amused us. But his Highness is tired and would like to go to sleep." "Hilary: Thank God." Hilary gets up and she tosses the book down on the bed. Shawn takes the book and he sets it on the desk. "Shawn: But first. His Highness would like to be tucked in." Shawn lays down. "Hilary: Your kidding" "Shawn: Yeah of course I'm kidding. UNCLE PHIL!" Hilary throws her hands up. "Hilary: Okay!" "Shawn: Nice and tight." Hilary tucks Shawn in. "Hilary: Not too tight. Wouldn't want you to suffocate." Hilary turns to walk away. Shawn picks up a piece of paper setting on the desk. Shawn hands it to Hilary. "Shawn: Oh and uh before you go.

I need help! I'm coming to you because I know how much you don't like Shawn." "Carlton: Shawn Michaels is a fine young man." "Hilary: Oh come off it Carlton. Your talking to me now." Carlton gets up and he looks at Hilary. "Hilary: We've let Shawn wreak havoc in our lives for too long. And now I think its time to band against him as brother and sister." "Carlton: What have you got in mind?" "Hilary: That's what I need you for." Hilary walks over in front of the sofa. She sets the basket down and she sits down on the sofa. "Hilary: I don't have any plans. I just want to punish him. I'm very vindictive. I'm just not imaginative." Carlton walks over in front of the sofa and he looks at Hilary. "Carlton: Hilary. Whether or not I want to punish Shawn and for the record I haven't come out pro or con. Why are you so mad at him?" Hilary looks around as she gets up off the sofa. "Hilary: Its kind of a long story. But you have to promise not to tell anybody." "Carlton: Sure." Hilary takes another look around. "Hilary: First of all. I dropped out of college." "Carlton: Hilary." "Hilary: I know. I know." "Carlton: Mom and Dad are gonna kill you." "Hilary: I know but the worst thing is. Shawn found out. And now he's using it to make me do all kinds of humiliating things." "Carlton: Like what?" "Hilary: He's making me clean his sneakers." "Carlton: Really?" Hilary puts her hands up. "Hilary: It gets worse...I have to hand wash his lucky draws." "Carlton: Disgusting." "Hilary: Oh. And this is his latest." Hilary holds up the paper Shawn gave her. "Hilary: He gave me a list of embarrassing things I have to do at dinner tomorrow night." "Carlton: That's awful." Carlton walks by Hilary and he stares at the floor. "Carlton: Is he making you clean his room?" "Hilary: No." Carlton smiles as he turns around and he looks at Hilary. "Carlton: Will you clean mine?" Hilary looks shocked. Carlton smirks. "Hilary: ...Carlton." Carlton throws his arms out. "Carlton: I'm sorry Hilary but this is too good to be true. Why should Shawn have all the fun?" "Hilary: Why you little..." "Carlton: Daaaaad." "Hilary: I hate you!" Carlton shrugs his shoulders as he walks over to the desk. "Carlton: Be that as it may." Carlton picks up some stuff on the desk and he walks over to Hilary and he hands her the papers. "Carlton: I want these debate cards typed by tomorrow morning. Double spaced."

Carlton looks at them and he stands up. "Carlton: Mom. Dad. Awfully sad about what happened to Hilary. Hope her crazy lies don't drag down anyone else." Uncle Phil stares at Carlton. "Uncle Phil: Carlton...Sit." Carlton smiles and he sits down on the sofa. Aunt Viv stares at Carlton and Shawn. "Aunt Viv: Maybe we haven't been clear enough about the rules of this house. You are not to blackmail other members of this family." Shawn looks at Aunt Viv. "Shawn: Okay. I'm sorry. I didn't know." Aunt Viv shakes her head as she looks over at Uncle Phil. "Uncle Phil: You 2 are grounded for a month. And Shawn. Added to the time that you already have. That should pretty much take you into Ozzfest 08." "Carlton: Dad." "Shawn: Uncle Phil." "Aunt Viv: You are excused." Shawn and Carlton get up and they walk off into the kitchen. "Aunt Viv: I don't know Philip. I've been thinking." "Uncle Phil: About what?" "Aunt Viv: You know. What Hilary said when she was alone with us." Aunt Viv sits down on the sofa. "Aunt Viv: You know. That I put too much pressure on her. That its hard living up to a mother who's a college professor. That I made her feel that she could never come to us and admit that she failed." "Uncle Phil: You mean you bought that crap?" Hilary walks into the living room. "Hilary: Mom? Dad? Can I say something?" "Aunt Viv: Yes." "Hilary: I've been thinking. And I decided that I'll do whatever you want me to do to make things better." "Uncle Phil: And what exactly would that be?" "Hilary: I don't know. Whatever you want me to do." Uncle Phil lets out a sigh. "Uncle Phil: Hilary. That's the problem." Uncle Phil walks around behind Hilary. Hilary turns to look at him. "Uncle Phil: We've been making all the decisions for you. Your 21 years old. Its time for you to make your own decisions. If you weren't getting anything out of college and you wanted to drop out. You should have told us and not tried to hide it like a little kid." "Hilary: But I thought you wanted me to go to college." "Aunt Viv: We want you to go to college for you. Not to make us happy. Its to make something of your life. We just want you to be all you can be." Hilary looks shocked. "Hilary: You want me to join the Army?" Aunt Viv covers her eyes. Uncle Phil raises his hand. "Uncle Phil: Let's try this again...Hilary...What do you want to do with your life?" Hilary looks over at Aunt Viv then back at Uncle Phil. "Hilary: ...I don't know. I guess I'll have to think about it." Hilary looks over at Aunt Viv. Aunt Viv gets up off the sofa. "Aunt Viv: Well. While your thinking about it. Your going to get yourself a job." Hilary looks at Uncle Phil then back at Aunt Viv. "Hilary: Okay." "Uncle Phil: Good night." Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv start to walk out of the room. "Hilary: Mom? Dad?" Aunt Viv and Uncle Phil stop and they look at Hilary. "Hilary: What kind of job do you want me to get?" Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv look at each other then they leave the room. Hilary lets out a sigh as she walks over to the sofa and she sits down. Shawn and Carlton peek around the corner. Hilary looks over at them. "Hilary: I'm not talking to you." Shawn and Carlton walk into the room. "Shawn: Hey. Look. Straight up. I didn't know you'd break down like that." Carlton sits in Uncle Phil's green chair. Shawn sits on the sofa beside Hilary. "Shawn: I mean. You walk around here like nothing bothers you. And I guess I took it alittle too far and I just wanna say I'm sorry." Hilary looks at Shawn. "Hilary: Yeah. Now. An hour ago you were ready to tell on me." Shawn smiles. "Shawn: Hilary you tripping. I was never going to tell on you." "Hilary: Really?" "Shawn: Come on. Of course not." Hilary looks at Carlton. "Hilary: How bout you Carlton?" "Carlton: We're dealing in hypotheticals here." Shawn shakes his head. Carlton stands up. "Carlton: Fine I wasn't gonna tell. Does that little placebo make either of you feel any better?" Carlton turns around and he walks out of the room. "Shawn: So...I guess your gonna hate me forever right?" Hilary looks at Shawn. "Hilary: Well. I thought about it. And I guess I brought this whole thing on myself. I mean. If I hadn't gotten you grounded. You wouldn't have blackmailed me. So I learned my lesson and we're even." "Shawn: Well. Hey. That's decent Hilary...Good night." Shawn pats Hilary on the knee as he gets up. "Hilary: Oh. Before you go." Hilary stands up. "Hilary: As my last official act of servitude. I did finish your laundry." Shawn smiles and he puts his hands up. "Shawn: I can't believe I made you do that. I'm sorry." Hilary picks up the basket and she sets it on the sofa. "Hilary: Its okay. What's done is done." Hilary shrugs her shoulders and she smirks as she turns around and she walks into the hallway that leads to the kitchen. Shawn looks in the basket and his face lights up. "Shawn: Hilary!" Shawn looks at Hilary as he picks up his boxers. "Shawn: My lucky draws!" There's a burned on mark of an iron on Shawn's boxers. Hilary laughs.

Its not your problem." "Angie: I know. I'm really glad things are going better for you guys now." "Victoria: Yeah. I gotta say things were rough on me but I survived." Victoria looks over at Angie. "Victoria: You know what they say is true. Its dog eat dog out there." Angie laughs. "Angie: Yeah. The world can be a scary place sometimes." "Victoria: You know Angie. Your really cool." "Angie: Thanks. So are you. And very mature for your age." Victoria smirks. "Victoria: Well. I try." Victoria flips through the channels and she finds SpongeBob. "Victoria: Ha. I love this show." Angie's eyes widen. "Angie: Uh oh." Victoria looks at Angie. "Victoria: What? Don't you like SpongeBob?" "Angie: No...Its no that..." Angie looks at Victoria. "Angie: I think this baby is coming." "Victoria: What? That can't be your not due for like another month." "Angie: I know but...Ahhh. Victoria. You gotta take me to the hospital." "Victoria: Alright." Victoria puts her shoes on and she gets up and she walks over to the front door and she picks up her black leather jacket out of the floor and she puts it on. Victoria walks back over to the sofa and she helps Angie put her shoes on then she helps her up. "Victoria: Come on. Let's go." Victoria and Angie walk out the door. Victoria closes the door back and they step off the porch. Victoria helps Angie to Taker's truck. "Victoria: Usually I wouldn't take Taker's truck without permission but this is an emergency." Victoria helps Angie into the truck then she walks around to the drivers side and she gets in the truck and she starts it up and they drive off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/28/2007 2:00a.m. Location: Hospital in Huntington Things are peaceful at the hospital. A little old man is walking across the street infront of the building. (Fast Metal Guitar Solo) A truck takes a sharp turn and drives up on the lot. The little old man is half way across the road when the truck comes flying toward him. The little old man looks at the truck. "Little Old Man: WHOA!" The little old man jumps out of his pants and he dives across the road and he lands safely on the other side. The truck comes to a screeching stop in front of the building. (The Fast Metal Solo ends.) The truck shuts off and Victoria gets out and she walks into the building. Victoria approaches the front desk. There's an old nurse at the front desk. "Victoria: Ma'am...Ma'am." The old nurse is started. She turns to Victoria. "Old Nurse: Oh. Sorry. Didn't hear you come in. Little hard of hearing. What can I help you with?" "Victoria: Look Its an emergency. I have a pregnant lady out in the truck." "Old Nurse: Well I'll say its an emergency. Come with me little lady." The old nurse walks around to the front desk and she takes Victoria by the hand. "Victoria: Wait. Its not me." "Old Nurse: You gotta be somewhere? Where ya gotta be? Your about to give birth." "Victoria: Ma'am do I look pregnant to you?" The old nurse looks at Victoria from head to toe. "Old Nurse: Yes very much so." Victoria looks shocked. "Victoria: Look I told you its not..." Victoria lets out a sigh. "Victoria: Never mind." Victoria pulls her hand free. "Victoria: I gotta find someone else." The old nurse continues walking on not noticing Victoria is no longer with her. A young nurse walks by. "Victoria: Ma'am." The young nurse looks at Victoria. "Young Nurse: Yes? Can I help you?" "Victoria: Look. I have a pregnant lady in the truck and she needs attention as soon as possible." "Young Nurse: Well please. Bring her in. Is she about to give birth?" "Victoria: Well. It seems so but the problem is she's early." Victoria somewhat rushes out the door and she helps Angie out of the truck. "Victoria: Sorry it took so long." The young nurse walks out with a wheelchair. Victoria helps Angie into the chair. The young nurse begins to wheel Angie in and Victoria follows. The young nurse looks at Victoria. "Young Nurse: Wait here for a moment." The young nurse continues on down the hall and a few moments later an old doctor approaches Victoria. "Doctor George: Hello I'm Doctor George. Are you the young lady who brought the pregnant lady in?" "Victoria: Hi. I'm Victoria. Yes. How is she doing Doc?" "Doctor George: Well its not good. Judging from our tests. She's way too early. About 4 weeks early." "Victoria: A whole month? What's causing this?" "Doctor George: Well it is a rare case that a baby is born early but I've never heard of a baby coming a month early but some good news is that the baby appears to be fully developed but in a case like this you never know what kind of problem the child could have. It could be anything from an undeveloped heart to an undeveloped brain to undeveloped lungs." "Victoria: And the baby is coming?" "Doctor George: Yes there's no question about that and there's only one way we can stop the birth now and that is to give her a special drug to kill the pain to allow the baby more time to develope." "Victoria: ...And the downside to that is?" Doctor George lets out a sigh. "Doctor George: It can also cause problems for the child but they wouldn't be as bad." "Victoria: Okay." "Doctor George: Are you related to the young lady giving birth?" "Victoria: No. Uh. Her husband is my brother." "Doctor George: Okay. Well. Only thing you can do now is to go and let your brother know what's going on and be sure to bring him down here as soon as possible." "Victoria: Okay. I'll be back later." Victoria walks out the front door and she gets in the truck and she starts up the truck and she drives off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/28/2007 3:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Victoria pulls up at the house. She shuts the truck off and she gets out. She walks up the walkway and she steps up on the porch. She pulls the key out to unlock the door. "Undertaker: Where have you been?" Victoria is startled. Taker is sitting in the chair beside the front door. Victoria looks at Taker. "Victoria: Oh. Taker. I didn't notice you there." "Undertaker: Where have you been?" "Victoria: Look Taker. I promise you I didn't go out on a joy ride. I'd never betray your trust like that...Angie is in the hospital." Taker's eyes widen. "Undertaker: Angie?...Why?" "Victoria: She's about to give birth." "Undertaker: How can this be? She's not due for another month." "Victoria: The Doc was confused too. I was coming back to get you and Trish." "Undertaker: Okay. Go wake Trish. I'm sure she'll want to be there." Suddenly a mysterious car pulls up the drive way. Taker and Victoria look at the car. "Undertaker: What do we have here?" "Victoria: A gang perhaps?" "Undertaker: Maybe." The car shuts off and the door opens and Shawn gets out. Taker and Victoria both look shocked. Shawn smiles and he waves. "Shawn: Hey. What's up?" "Victoria: Shawn!" "Shawn: Hey Victoria." Taker steps off the porch. "Undertaker: Shawn...We thought you was dead." "Shawn: What gave y'all that idea?" "Undertaker: The morning you fought Pride. When we woke. We found a note on the door that said Shawn's dead. So we thought Pride killed you." "Shawn: Oh naw. I got him. I got beat up pretty bad but as you can see I'm not dead." "Victoria: I'm so happy. I wonder who planted the note? Anyway If you'll excuse me I need to go wake Trish." Victoria steps up on the porch and she walks into the house. "Shawn: Hey man. Why she waking Trish?" Taker let's out a sigh. "Undertaker: My wife is in the hospital about to give birth...Problem is...She's a month early." "Shawn: Oh naw. I'm sorry to hear that." "Undertaker: Shawn your welcome to come down to the hospital with us." "Shawn: Cool man. I'm there." "Undertaker: However. I wonder who planted that note on our door." Shawn just shrugs. Victoria walks into the back room where Trish is asleep. Victoria turns the lamp on and she taps Trish on the shoulder. "Victoria: Trish." Trish opens her eyes and she looks at Victoria. "Trish: Victoria?" Trish looks at the clock. "Trish: Victoria...Its 3:10a.m." "Victoria: I know. Trish. Angie's in the hospital." Trish' eyes widen. "Trish: What? Why?" "Victoria: She's about to give birth." "Trish: But she's a month early." The bathroom door opens and Dante walks out and he looks at Trish and Victoria. "Dante: Who's a month early?" Victoria looks at Dante. "Victoria: Angie's in the hospital about to give birth." "Dante: Whoa. Are you serious?" "Victoria: Yeah." Trish gets up. Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Just put your flips on. Its not too cold tonight and you don't have time to get dressed. Taker is outside waiting." "Trish: Okay. I'll be out in a minute." Trish walks into the bathroom and she turns the light on and closes the door. Victoria walks toward Dante. "Dante: Man. I really feel for you all. Its just one problem after another." "Victoria: Don't worry about it. Just be thankful your not part of this screwed up family...Hey. Your not gonna believe this but Shawn's alive!" Dante's eyes widen. "Dante: Wow! Really?! I can't believe it." "Victoria: I know. He's outside now. He just showed up." "Dante: Its good to know he's still kickin." "Victoria: Yeah. Well. We better be headin' out. Sleep well buddy." "Dante: Thanks. See you all sometime tomorrow." "Victoria: Alright." Victoria walks through the living room and out the front door. Victoria steps off the porch. "Undertaker: Is Trish coming?" "Victoria: Yeah. She'll be out in a minute." The bathroom door opens and Trish walks out. Her hair is pulled back in a ponytail. She walks into the living room and she puts her flips on then she steps out on the porch. She closes the door. "Trish: Alright. Let's go." Taker gets in the truck on the drivers side. Trish gets in the front seat. Shawn and Victoria ride in the bed of the truck. "Shawn: Man. If its not one thing its another. I wonder why our family has so many problems?" "Victoria: I don't know." Taker starts the truck up and he drives off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/28/2007 4:00a.m. Location: Hospital in Huntington Taker pulls up on the parking lot and he pulls into an empty parking space. Taker shuts the truck off. Taker and Trish get out of the truck. Shawn and Victoria climb out of the truck bed. They walk into the hospital and they approach the front desk. There's a young nurse standing there. She looks at them. "Young Nurse: Can I help you?" "Victoria: Yeah. I brought in Angie. The young lady giving birth." The young nurse looks at Shawn and Taker. "Young Nurse: Okay. Which one of you is the father?" Shawn, Trish, Taker and Victoria look at each other then back at the nurse. "Undertaker: He is currently away on business." The young nurse writes the something down. Shawn picks in his ear. He pulls his finger out and he has ear wax on his finger. "Shawn: Ew." Shawn flicks it off his finger then he looks at Victoria and Trish. Victoria and Trish stare at Shawn. Shawn just shrugs. "Shawn: What?" "Young Nurse: Okay. Victoria. Angela wishes to see you. Dr. Georgia is with her. Please come with me." The young nurse walks down the hall. Victoria follows. Taker, Trish and Shawn stay in the waiting room. The young nurse leads Victoria to the room where Angie is. Victoria walks into the room. "Young Nurse: Dr. George. Here's Victoria." The nurse leaves and Victoria stands there. "Dr. George: Ah. Mrs. Angela. Here's Victoria." Angie looks at Victoria. "Angie: Victoria. The Doctor says I've got 1 of 2 choices. Either one. I can go through with the birth tonight and take a chance or two he can give me a special drug to kill the pain and allow my baby more time to develop but the down side to the drug is that its still harmful. I need some advice. What should I do?" Victoria stares at the floor for a moment then she looks at Angie and she can see the pain and suffering in her eyes. "Victoria: I'm sorry Angie. I can't offer any help. Its your choice." Victoria walks out of the room. Dr. George looks at Victoria then at Angie. "Dr. George: Well Mrs. Angela. What's it gonna be?" Angie looks over at the wall and she appears to be deep in thought. Victoria walks into the waiting room. Taker, Trish and Shawn look at Victoria. "Trish: How is she?" "Victoria: In alot of pain." "Trish: What did she need?" "Victoria: She needed some advice." Victoria sits down. Shawn is sitting beside Victoria. Trish is beside Taker. After a few moments. Dr. George walks out into the waiting room. "Dr. George: Everyone. Angela is going to go through with the birth tonight and you all will be informed when the baby is here." "Victoria: Okay." Dr. George leaves the room. Victoria lets out a sigh as she leans back in the chair. 15 minutes pass and Dr. George returns to the waiting room. Victoria stands up and she looks at Dr. George. Trish and Shawn turn their attention to Dr. George as well. Taker just stares at the floor. "Victoria: Alright. Break it to us Doc. We can handle it." "Dr. George: Angela. has given birth to a beautiful baby girl and the baby appears to be fully developed but as I said before you never can tell in a case like this. I am unsure of her heart, brain and lungs and I will be running tests tonight to find out for sure." Victoria, Trish and Shawn smile. "Victoria: Are you serious Doc? Everything seems to be alright?" "Dr. George: Well it seems that way. Normally in a case like this the child will have one leg longer than the other or one arm longer than the other but this child is perfect. Her arms and legs are the same length. Both hands and both feet are the same size but now what I'm worried about is heart, brain and lungs. So you all can go home and get some rest and I'll run the tests and we'll all know by this afternoon." "Victoria: Thanks Doc. We'll see ya later." "Dr. George: Have a safe trip home." Trish, Shawn and Taker get up. They leave the hospital and they walk out to the truck. Taker and Trish get in the front seat and Shawn and Victoria ride in the truck bed. Taker starts up the truck and they drive off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/28/2007 5:00a.m. Location: The Underworld Hades is in the main room of the Underworld. "Hades: Lust. Go and bring Christy to me." "Lust: Yes sir." Lust leaves the room and he walks down a dark hallway and he walks into a room. Christy is sitting on the ground leaning back against the wall. "Lust: Christy! On your feet!" Christy looks at Lust. She gets up. "Lust: Come with me. Hades wishes to see you." Lust leaves the room. Christy follows Lust back to the main room. Christy steps into the main room. Hades smiles. "Hades: Welcome Christy." Christy frowns. "Christy: What do you want Hades?" Hades smirks. "Hades: Now is that anyway to speak to your King?" "Christy: You haven't won yet Hades. Don't you think your getting alittle too far ahead of yourself?" "Hades: No. Because I'm gonna make a deal with you." "Christy: Hmph. Making a deal with you is what got me into this mess." "Hades: Christy. Christy. Christy. I want to help you. I'm gonna make you a deal and I believe you'll find it hard to refuse." "Christy: I'm listening." Hades walks up to Christy. "Hades: Here's the deal. Your daughter Trish is in our way of victory and she needs to be taken out of the picture." Hades walks around behind Christy. "Hades: You help us kill her and I will reward you with the thing you want most." Hades leans in close to Christy's ear. "Hades: Your freedom." Christy's eyes widen. Christy stares at the ground. She then looks at Hades. "Christy: Alright Hades. I'll take you up on that." Hades looks shocked. "Hades: You will?...I mean. Good. Good. Beautiful and smart." Christy looks at the ground. "Christy: But you have to grant me this request." Hades smile fades. "Hades: What?" "Christy: I want to meet Trish. As her mother I do have the right to see her. And she has the right to know who her mother is." Hades puts his finger under his chin and he appears to be thinking. "Hades: Alright. Alright Christy. You want to meet her. Then later on tonight. You'll be free to roam the earth again at your will for 24 hours. And don't forget. 24 hours. I'd hate to have to send Wrath and Lust after you. I wouldn't want to mess up that pretty face of yours." Christy smiles and she turns and she walks out of the room. Lust looks at Hades. "Lust: So she's gonna help us?" Hades smiles. "Hades: That's right Lust. Our victory has been ensured." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/28/2007 11:30p.m. Location: Hospital in Huntington Taker, Victoria, Trish and Shawn are sitting in the waiting room. Doctor George walks into the room. Victoria stands up and she looks at him. "Doctor George: I uh..I have some good news and some bad news." "Victoria: Alright. Give us the good first." "Doctor George: Well. The good news is that the tests showed that the child is indeed fully developed. She's very very healthy but..." Doctor George lets out a sigh. "Doctor George: One test showed me a tragic image...The child has a brain tumor." Victoria looks down at the floor then back at Doctor George. "Victoria: Isn't there something you can do?" "Doctor George: There's only one thing I can do and that's to take the child into surgery but it is very dangerous." Victoria lets out a sigh. Taker gets up and he walks out of the building. Shawn stands up. "Shawn: Yo man. Can I go see Angie?" "Doctor George: Well. Visiting hours are over but I can make an acception for you." Doctor George walks down the hallway. Shawn follows him. Victoria appears to be very angry as she just stands there. She stares at the floor. Victoria closes her eyes. "Victoria: Da*n it." Doctor George walks into Angie's room. Shawn walks in behind him. Angie is sitting back in the bed holding her baby. "Doctor George: Mrs. Lopez. You have a visitor." Angie looks at Shawn. Doctor George leaves the room. "Angie: Who are you?" "Shawn: Hey. Um. Sorry to drop in like this. I guess we haven't been properly introduced. Hi. I'm Shawn. I'm Taker's half brother." "Angie: Oh my God. Shawn? But Taker said you was dead." "Shawn: Well it seems someone tried pulling a prank on you all. I'm guessing you know about the demon's?" "Angie: Yeah." Doctor George walks back into the room. "Doctor George: Shawn. Victoria is waiting on you." Shawn walks up to Doctor George. "Shawn: Yo Doc. Would it be possible for me to spend the night here? I mean. Angie sure looks like she could use some company." Doctor George looks at Angie. "Doctor George: Would you like Shawn to stay Mrs. Lopez?" Angie smiles. "Angie: Sure." Doctor George looks at Shawn and he nods. "Doctor George: Alright. Your welcome to stay the night. A nurse will check on you in a few hours Mrs. Lopez." "Angie: Thank you." Doctor George leaves the room. Shawn walks over to Angie's bed side and he looks at the baby. "Shawn: Hey. Can I hold her?" "Angie: Sure." Angie hands Shawn the baby. Shawn holds the baby for a few moments. He looks over at Angie and she's fallen asleep. Shawn walks over to a chair and he sits down and he looks at the baby. The child opens her eyes and she looks at Shawn. Shawn smiles. "Shawn: Hey. Its your Uncle Shawn. Hey kid. I know you don't understand what's going on. I wish I could help you. Sadly I can't do anything. But look. Our family is the toughest family to ever walk the earth. The things we've been through. We've been to hell and back and back to hell again. Now if we can beat the odds in everything we do. I know you can beat this tumor. Just hang in there kid. I mean. I don't even know who my father is. And you've got two great parents who are gonna be there for you. You've got two wonderful aunts who are probably gonna turn out to be your best friends. And if I count you got me. Ha ha. But look kid. We don't want you going anywhere. Your more than welcome to our family. We all want you to stay with us." The child closes her eyes and Shawn looks up. "Shawn: I don't really understand how this works but...God...You see what's wrong with this child. You have the power to change this. We're all powerless to save her...God please...Please save my niece." The child reaches up her hand and she grabs and holds Shawn's shirt. Shawn looks down at her then he looks down at the floor and he holds the child close to his chest as the scene slowly pans out dramatically. (Slippin' Away by Dokken) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/29/2007 12:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Victoria is sitting back on the sofa. Trish is sitting in the floor. They are playing Mario Kart 64. They just finished a race on Koopa Troopa Beach. Suddenly there's a knock at the door. Victoria and Trish look at the door then they look at each other. Taker walks through the living room and he walks up to the door. Victoria and Trish just shrug and continue playing. Taker opens the door and Christy is standing there. Taker steps out on the porch and he closes the door. "Undertaker: Who are you?" "Christy: My name is of no importance. Just answer me this question. Does a man named Undertaker live here?" Taker stares at Christy. "Undertaker: ...What business do you have with me?" "Christy: ...I'm Christy Michaels." Taker's eyes widen. "Christy: I'm looking for Trish." Taker looks toward the ground and he closes his eyes. "Undertaker: I want to know why you abandoned us." "Christy: I'll explain but first I want to see Trish." Taker looks at Christy. "Undertaker: Why do you want to see her now? You didn't want her 14 years ago." "Christy: I can't say." Taker stares at Christy. Taker then motions to go inside. Taker opens the door and he steps into the house. Christy follows behind him. Trish and Victoria look at Taker and Christy. "Undertaker: Girls...This is Christy Michaels...Your mother." Trish' face lights up and she gets up and she runs over to Christy and she hugs her. Christy appears to be surprised. She slowly raises her arms up and she embraces Trish. Not a word is spoken. A moment passes and Trish turns loose and she takes a step back. Victoria stands there behind Trish and she stares at Christy. Trish looks at Victoria and she steps off to the side. Christy looks at Victoria. Christy's smile fades as Victoria doesn't appear to be thrilled. Victoria quickly grabs Christy and she embraces her. Christy is startled by Victoria's studden movement. Christy slowly raises her arms up and she embraces Victoria. "Victoria: I never thought I'd see you. I can't believe this is really happening. I'm too afraid to let go. I don't want to lose you again." Christy appears to be fighting back the tears as she holds Victoria. "Christy: Victoria sweetie. Your not gonna lose me again...I promise." Victoria slowly lets go and she leans back. "Victoria: Why did you abandon us? I don't understand." "Christy: This is gonna sound crazy. But its because I love you." "Trish: But. That confuses me even more." Christy looks at Trish. "Christy: Its kind of a long story." Christy and Victoria take a seat on the sofa. Trish sits in the floor. Taker sits back in his chair. "Christy: I know you kids know about the demonic forces of the Underworld." "Victoria: Yeah. All too well." "Christy: Well...Its my fault you got dragged into this war." "Trish: What?" "Christy: You see. To make a long story short. 20 years ago. I had just recently married your father. I was up late one night and your father went to bed early." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 7/10/1987 Christy walks upstairs. A tall black figure is walking down the hallway toward the bedroom where her husband sleeps. Christy stops at the top of the stairs and she looks at the figure. "Christy: What in the?" The figure stops and it turns to Christy and its Hades. "Christy: What are you doing in here? Who are you?" Hades smiles. "Hades: Why. I'm Hades the Lord of the Dead and I'm here to take your husbands soul." Christy's eyes widen. "Christy: What? Why?" "Hades: Because he sold the rights of his soul to me years ago and its time he be punished for his sins." "Christy: Wait a minute. Would you be willing to make a deal?" "Hades: Hm. I don't know. What have ya got for me babe?" "Christy: You let him go free and I'll give you the rights to my soul." Hades smiles as he looks at Christy. "Hades: Hm. I like the sound of that alot better. Consinder it done. He is now free but you are now my puppet." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Christy: And so that sums it all up. And if memory serves. I gave you all up in hopes you wouldn't have to face these demon's and suffer for my sins. I wouldn't blame you all if you hated me till the end of time. I'm really sorry." Victoria, Trish and Taker look back and forth between each other. Victoria looks at Christy. "Victoria: Mom...I could never hate you. I understand everything now." "Trish: Me too." They all look at Taker. Taker just nods his head. "Trish: Well its getting late. Are you gonna stay the night mom?" Christy smiles and nods. "Trish: Cool. Alright then I'll see you in the morning." Trish gets up and she hugs Christy. Trish then walks into the back room. Taker gets up and follows close behind. Victoria lays back against Christy. "Victoria: You know mom...That was my first hug." Christy closes her eyes and a tear rolls down her cheek. "Christy: I'm sorry Victoria. I wish I could have been there for all of you." "Victoria: Don't worry about it mom. All that matters is your here now." "Christy: So. How's life been here?" "Victoria: Its been good. You know. Not much here. But. We get by...Hey. Isn't there a way we can free you from Hades grasp?" "Christy: ...I don't know." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11/29/2007 9:00a.m. Location: Hospital In Huntington Shawn is sitting back in the chair asleep.

"Angie: Hey sleepy head." Shawn looks at Angie. "Shawn: Mmmm. Hey...Where's the baby?" "Angie: Doctor George is about to take her into surgery." "Shawn: Hm." Shawn stares at the floor. Thinking about the night before. "Angie: Shawn I'm scared." Shawn looks at Angie. "Shawn: Angie look. I know your scared. I mean. As I held her in my arms last night. I realized she's slippin' away from us and there's nothing she can do. She doesn't understand what's wrong with her. I felt emotions last night that I've never felt before. But Angie listen. This family is the toughest family to ever walk the earth. Everything we've been through. We beat the odds everytime there stacked against us. She's gonna be alright. She's gonna pull out of this."

Angie and Shawn look at each other then back at Doctor George. "Doctor George: I can't believe this." "Angie: What is it?" Doctor George hands Angie one of the papers. "Doctor George: Here is the test result from yesterday. You can clearly see the tumor in the child's brain. Now. Take a look at this." Doctor Goerge hands Angie the other piece of paper. Angie looks at it. "Doctor George: That is today's test result." "Angie: Where's the tumor?" "Doctor George: It disappeared. As if by magic. I ran 4 tests to make sure I wasn't getting a misreading and they all turned out the same. Mrs. Lopez. Your baby's gonna be just fine." Angie smiles. "Angie: Oh my God. I can't believe this." A nurse walks into the room with the baby and she hands her to Angie. "Doctor George: You'll be cleared to go home in a few short days." Doctor George and the nurse leave the room. Shawn stands by the window and he looks up into the sky. Shawn smiles. "Shawn: Thank you God. I really appreciate it." Shawn smiles as he looks over his shoulder at Angie.

"Victoria: Yeah. They have really good steaks." "Christy: Well the food sure was good." "Victoria: Yeah. I don't think I've ever seen anyone tear into a steak like that. Ha ha." Christy laughs. "Christy: Well. Its just because I haven't ate anything all day you know?" "Victoria: Yeah." Christy looks over at the clock. Her eyes widen and she tries to hide her surprise. "Christy: Well. Its been wonderful but Its time for me to leave." "Victoria: Aww. Really?" "Christy: Yeah. You know. Texas is calling." "Victoria: Couldn't you come live with us?"

There's always a way. Remember that." "Victoria: I will...I love you mom." A tear rolls down Christy's cheek. "Christy: I love you too." Victoria leans back and she slowly lets go of Christy. Christy smiles and she kisses Victoria on the cheek. "Christy: Take care of yourself while I'm away." Victoria nods. "Victoria: I will." Christy smiles and she turns around and she walks out the front door. Christy closes the door back. Victoria flops on the sofa.

Christy walks down the long dark corridor that leads to the door. Wrath and Lust stare at Christy as she approches them. Christy walks by them and she starts to open the door but Lust grabs her by the wrist. "Lust: Nuh uh Christy. You know the rules. No one goes in unless called on by Hades." Christy stares at Lust with Saiyan's rage in her eyes. "Wrath: Yeah so get back to your private chamber until you get word from Hades." Christy takes Wrath and Lust by the head and she bangs their heads together. They fall to the floor and Christy enters Hades chamber. Hades looks at Christy and he smiles as she approches him. "Hades: Well well. Hello Christy. I see you made it back with time to spare." Christy points at Hades. "Christy: Hades. The deal is off." Hades frowns. "Hades: What?" Christy stands face to face with Hades. She stares at him with Saiyan's rage in her eyes. Christy pokes Hades in the chest. "Christy: Get someone else to do your dirty work. I refuse to help you kill Trish." "Hades: Christy Christy Christy. I must say I'm surprised. You don't even spend 24 hours with the little brat and you've changed your mind?" "Christy: When I went there I wasn't expecting a warm welcome. I thought they would have so much hate built up inside that they wouldn't want anything to do with me. But I was wrong. They welcomed me with open arms. I love them and I will not kill them. Freedom or no freedom." "Hades: Christy. I wanted to help you. I wanted to give you your freedom but because of this rebellon." Hades walks around behind Christy and he places his hands on her shoulders. " Hades: You will never be free. You will be my puppet...-Whispers in ear.- Forever!" Christy closes her eyes and she looks toward the floor. Hades walks around in front of Christy.

Hades leans into Christy's face. "Hades: You've made a big mistake. I'm thinking of killing you right now and getting you out of my hair. You've been more trouble than I think your worth." Christy smirks. "Christy: Go ahead. Kill me." Hades anger builds as he stares at Christy. A Demon Kamehameha forms in Hades hands. Christy stares Hades stright in the eyes. Hades pauses for a second and he smirks as he stares at Christy. The blast disappears. "Hades: No...No. We're gonna make you suffer first." Hades punches Christy in the gut. Christy screams in pain and she drops to her knees. "Hades: Get her out of here." Wrath and Lust pull Christy up and they force her to her private chamber. They toss her in and slam the door shut. The sound echos. The darkness slowly creeps around Christy as she lays on the floor. The scene slowly pans out dramatically.

Suddenly the front door is kicked down. Taker and Victoria quickly look toward the door. Wrath and Lust are standing there. Both smirk as they stand at the door way. "Lust: May we come in?"

"Trish: What do you want? Why are you here?" Wrath and Lust look at each other then they look back at Trish. "Lust: We're here to give you a message. Do you remember your mommy?" Trish slightly nods. "Trish: What about her? Is something wrong with her?" Wrath and Lust smirk. "Wrath: She rebelled against us and therefore she has paid the price." "Lust: Mommy...is dead!" Trish' eyes widen.

Thunder cracks as lightning flashes. "Snake: Those cowards. They waited for us to leave so they could attack in hopes of killing one of you." Snake helps Trish up to her feet. "Snake: That's a nasty cut. We need to get you bandaged up." "Trish: Wrath and Lust...They said...They said." "Snake: What?" Dante looks over his shoulder at Trish.

"Simon: And these are the championship oars that were retired in 1957." Shawn smirks as he puts his hands on his hips and he looks at Simon. "Shawn: Man. Y'all don't throw nothing away." Simon smirks. "?: Shawn Michaels?" Shawn turns and he looks at the man standing there. "Ned: I'm Edward Fellows III. But call me Ned. Okay?" "Shawn: Okay." "Ned: You've been assigned to my lit class and so I read your records and I just wanted to say we're both coming from the same place." Shawn smirks. "Shawn: Oh man. You from San Antonio?" "Ned: Shaker Heights, Ohio. But when I was doing research on my main man Langston Hughes. I lived in Dallas. And believe me. Those 2 weeks changed my life." Shawn looks confused. "Ned: I bathed in Euphrates when dawns were young. I built my hut by the Congo and it lulled me to sleep. My soul has grown deep like the waters." "Shawn: I can tell." "Ned: Hey listen. I got a mean collection of Rock albums. Anytime you feel like grooving. Come on over and get down with your bad self." Shawn stares at Ned. "Ned: But seriously do you have any problems? Any questions?" "Shawn: Um. Where all the babes at?" "Ned: Babes?" "Shawn: Yeah. Girls." "Ned: Shawn. Didn't anybody tell you? This is an all boys school." (Horror music) Shawn looks upset.

We're the Alligaroos and we'd like to take this opportunity to tell you new students to..." Carlton blows a kazoo. "Guys: Come see yourselves. At home. Come see yourselves. One of the family."

They brought in the evil teacher...Dr. Bloat." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 9/14/2007 8:30a.m. Location: Huntington High The scene opens in a class room. A young man walks in and takes a seat. Carlton taps the guy next to him and he looks at his watch. "Carlton: Enter the Bloat. 5. 4. 3. 2..." Suddenly the door swings open and a bald man wearing a suit and glasses walks in. He stops and he looks at the class he then turns and writes on the chalk board. "Dr. Bloat: I am Dr. B period Langford Oates." Dr. Bloat underlines the name. "Dr. Bloat: And you are..." Dr. Bloat walks over to a desk and he picks up a notepad. The guys raise their hands as their name is called. "Dr. Bloat: Alan, Banks, Downer, Fales, Hunt, Lieberbaum, Michaels. Michaels. Shawn Michaels." Dr. Bloat crosses Shawn's name out. "Dr. Bloat: Mmm hm. Uh. Stanhope, Sterling, Svenson." Shawn walks into the room. He has his tie tied around his head. "Shawn: Hey!" Dr. Bloat looks at Shawn. "Dr. Bloat: Mr. Svenson?" "Shawn: -Speaks Jamaican- Ja?" "Dr. Bloat: Mr. Michaels. How good of you to join us. Mr. Michaels. Look around. Do you see any difference between yourself and the other young gentlemen?" Shawn looks around the room then back at Dr. Bloat. "Shawn: Is that like a trick question?" Dr. Bloat approches Shawn. "Dr. Bloat: The tie. Mr. Michaels. The tie." Dr. Bloat walks around behind Shawn. "Dr. Bloat: Kindly consult that section of the rule book pertaining to neckwear." Shawn smirks as he looks at Dr. Bloat and he holds up one finger. "Shawn: Oh you mean. Section 3. Paragraph 4. Which states; A tie must be worn with a Windsor knot." Shawn smiles and he moves the tie over in front of his face. "Shawn: But it doesn't say where." The other guys laugh. "Dr. Bloat: Take a seat." Shawn sits down behind Carlton. Dr. Bloat walks back up to the front of the class. Shawn puts his books in his desk. The guy sitting next to Shawn takes his tie off and he ties it around his head. "Dr. Bloat: And now. May we turn our attention to history? Thomas Paine once wrote..." Dr. Bloat starts to write on the chalk board. Shawn raises his hand. "Shawn: Oooo ooo oo oo." Dr. Bloat turns to Shawn. "Dr. Bloat: Mr. Michaels?" "Shawn: Weren't you the bad guy in Goldfinger?" The other guys laugh. Carlton covers his face. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 9/14/2007 9:45a.m Location: Huntington High Shawn stands at his locker in the hallway. He looks at his jacket then he checks out the inside. Shawn smirks and he takes his jacket off and he turns it inside out and he puts it back on. 3 guys walk up to Shawn. "Guy 1: Hey smooth!" "Guy 2: Now that's cool." "Guy 3: Sharp. Look at that." "Shawn: Yeah its alittle something I put together." The 3 guys smile and walk on. Shawn gets a book out of his locker and he closes the door. Shawn starts to walk on. Suddenly another guy walks up behind Shawn. "Guy: Michaels! Ho!" The guy raises his arm. Shawn smirks. "Shawn: My man Lieberbaum." "Lieberbaum: Right. First name Kellogg." Shawn smiles. "Shawn: Listen Cornflake." Shawn pats Cornflake on the shoulder. "Shawn: Ho is definitely not a word that you want to yell. I think the word your looking for is yo." "Cornflake: Yo?" "Shawn: Yeah. It'll be easy to remember. Its like oy backwards." "Cornflake: Alright." Shawn and Cornflake shake hands. Cornflake does a weird hand shake then he snaps his fingers and he walks on. Shawn watches him and he shakes his head. Ned comes down the hallway. "Ned: Shawn. Hey." Shawn puts his book up infront of his face and he rushes off into the main entrance hall. Carlton approches Shawn. "Carlton: Shawn. May I have a word?" "Shawn: -Acts tough- You got something you want to say to me man?" Shawn smiles. Carlton stares at Shawn. "Carlton: Could you be serious for just one moment?" Shawn moves his hand across his face and he changes his face to a serious face. "Carlton: Shawn this is your first day and I think your rubbing alot of people the wrong way." Shawn smirks. "Shawn: Carlton. Here in Boys Town. I don't want to rub anybody anyway." "Carlton: That's not funny. Nothing you say is funny." Shawn smiles. "Shawn: What did you like pass out in history class? I had them rolling." "Carlton: The people who count were laughing at you not with you. I mean it Shawn. When your snubbed. Don't say I did not warn you." The same 3 guys who approched Shawn eailer walk by wearing their jackets inside out like Shawn. "Guys: Hey Shawn. How's it going?" They pat Shawn on the back as they walk by. Shawn looks at Carlton and he smirks and shrugs. Suddenly Chad walks down the stairs with some guys. "Chad: Oh there you are." Carlton turns to Shawn. "Carlton: Okay. Here comes Chad. Just lay low and watch how its done." Carlton turns to Chad. Chad and the other guys walk by Carlton and they walk up to Shawn. Carlton looks confused. "Chad: Are you free this weekend Michaels? My parents are throwing one of their big weekend bashes at our house. Football. The lobster boil. You know. The usual." "Shawn: Ah yes. The usual." "Carlton: The Chadster's bashes are legendary." "Chad: Oh yeah. Carlton. You should come too." Chad pats Carlton on the shoulder. Suddenly the bell sounds and the guys walk on. Chad turns back to Shawn. "Chad: Bang bang." Shawn acts like he has a tommy gun and he makes gun noises. The hallway is empy. Shawn is the only one left. He smirks as he looks around. He looks at the statue of the founder and he playfully throws Sweet Chin Music at it but misses. Shawn smirks and he struts over to the alumni desk and he sits down in the chair. He looks at the pictures of the first students and he sees a picture of himself hanging there next to them. Shawn smiles and he winks and points at the picture. Shawn pulls a set of keys out of his pocket and he begins to carve the word "fresh" into the desk. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 9/14/2007 5:00p.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Shawn is sitting on the sofa.

Geoffrey walks into the room. Geoffrey tries to sneak through the living room and into the kitchen. "Shawn: I'm going off the rails on a Crazy Train." Geoffrey is almost home free. "Shawn: My man Geoffrey." Geoffrey turns to Shawn. "Geoffrey: Master Shawn." "Shawn: Hey you know what I could really go for right now? Some pate." "Geoffrey: Then by all means go.

The alumni desk has been cruelly and wantonly defaced." "Aunt Viv: What happened?" "Carlton: Someone carved the word fresh in it. And they have a theory about the person who did it." Shawn scraches his head. "Shawn: The...they...they do?" "Carlton: They think it was a freshman who got halfway through and lost his cool. Ashley smiles as she looks at Carlton. "Ashley: He lost his cool? That's funny. Fresh means cool right Shawn?" Ashley looks over at Shawn. Shawn smiles and he waves his hand at Ashley. "Shawn: -Nervous- I can't keep up with this crazy teenage slang." "Ashley: But I thought they call you the Fresh Prince." Shawn covers his face. "Uncle Phil: Day Darn One Vivian. Day Darn One." Geoffrey walks back into the room. "Geoffrey: Champagne." Uncle Phil turns to Geoffrey. "Uncle Phil: Cork it." Uncle Phil walks out of the room. Geoffrey turns and he looks at Uncle Phil. Shawn lowers his head and he looks toward the floor. Aunt Viv, Ashley and Hilary leave the room. "Carlton: Well all I can say to you Shawn is tsk squard...You thought you had the school all figured out. Oh no you didn't need my advice." Shawn raises his head. "Shawn: Alright Carlton. What is your brilliant advice?" Shawn lowers his head. "Carlton: I'll tell you. You've got to march straight into school tomorrow and confess." Shawn stands up and he looks at Carlton. Shawn smirks and laughs. Shawn continues laughing. "Carlton: I'm serious Shawn. There's such a thing as the honor code." "Shawn: There's such a thing as dog dumb too." "Carlton: You don't intend to tell them at all?" "Shawn: Maybe on my deathbed." "Carlton: Then on your conscience be it." Carlton walks past Shawn. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 9/15/2007 8:30a.m. Location: Huntington High (All the guys are in Dr. Bloat's class. Shawn sits next to Cornflake. "Dr. Bloat: Before we begin the class. I must speak about the atrocious defiling of our sacred alumni desk. Fingerprint analysis has shown it is the handiwork of our resident hoodlum. Shawn Michaels." Dr. Bloat pulls out a shotgun and he pumps it and he aims at Shawn. Shawn screams.) Shawn wakes to discover it was only a dream. "Dr. Bloat: And may we turn our attention to another important figure in American history. Dolly Madison was one of most influential first ladies. And not as Mr. Michaels contends the manufacturer of Ring Dings." The guys laugh as they look at Shawn. Shawn smirks. "Dr. Bloat: In the short time left I'd like to address the infamous act of vandalism which occurred here yesterday." Dr. Bloat steps out into the room. "Dr. Bloat: The desecration of our desk is indeed sad but even sadder is the fact that no one has come forward with a confession. So if any of you may know..." Carlton stands up and he points at Shawn. "Carlton: He did it!" Shawn covers his face. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/3/2007 11:45p.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Shawn gets off the bed and he sits in the floor.

Other students stand around. Simon whacks the table with a hammer. "Simon: As President of student council. I declare this tribunal in session." "Man: Let's begin by hearing from Mr. Michaels." Uncle Phil, Shawn, and Carlton sit in chairs placed in the center of the room. Shawn starts to get up but Carlton pulls him back into his seat. "Carlton: Shawn. Will you finally take my advice? Let me do the talking for you." Shawn waves his hand out as he stares at the floor. Carlton stands up. "Carlton: Gentlemen. My cousin has committed a vicious crime." Carlton approches the table. Shawn stares at Carlton. "Carlton: He could not be guiltier." "Shawn: Oh yeah. That's what I would have said." Uncle Phil elbows Shawn. "Carlton: The fact is young Shawn has not yet developed the social skills to adapt to the rarefied atmosphere of Huntington High." Carlton then turns to Chad. "Carlton: Or to be invited to parties." Chad just shrugs his shoulders. Carlton turns back to the men at the table. "Carlton: I recommend we put him on probation. Ban him from all clubs. Sports, special events, the Alligaroos." Shawn taps Carlton's arm. Carlton turns to Shawn. "Shawn: No. Not the Alligaroos." Simon stands up. "Simon: Probation is not enough. If Michaels isn't exspelled. It will be an invitation to anarchy." Ned stands up and he steps out. "Ned: I have to say that I am appalled at this tribunal's lack of sensitivity." Shawn points at Ned. "Shawn: Speak on bro." Ned raises his arm as he looks at Shawn then he turns back to the men at the table. "Ned: We can't judge Shawn Michaels by our standards. He doesn't even speak our language. Where he grew up. The word bad means good." Shawn nods his head. Ned puts his hands in his pockets. "Ned: Doesn't that say it all?" Ned turns to Shawn and he raises his arm as he walks back to his seat. "Ned: Fight the power." Ned sits back down. The other man sitting at the table looks at Shawn. "Man: Shawn do you have anything to say?" "Shawn: Well. Yeah." Shawn looks around the room. He gets up and he approches the alumni desk and he looks at it. "Shawn: I didn't think y'all was gonna get so mad for me writing my name on an old desk. I mean. I'd never write my name on a new desk. That's vandalism. But see. Those guys." Shawn points at the pictures of the first students. "Shawn: They carved their names in a new desk. They got their picture on the wall." "Man: Well. That's totally different. The alumni carved their names so people would remember them as part of this school." "Shawn: That's why I did it." "Simon: That's ridiculous. Your trying to ruin our school." "Cornflake: No he isn't." The man points at Cornflake. "Man: Lieberbaum. Your out of order." "Cornflake: But he's not ruining the school. He's making it better." The other students agree. Cornflake points at the men at the table. "Cornflake: I don't mean to diss you guys...But if Shawn's exspelled. I'm leaving too. And...And I'm taking my dad's check book with me!" Shawn smirks. The students start chantting "Free Shawn! Free Shawn! Free Shawn! Free Shawn!" Shawn throws his arms up in the air and he walks around the room. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 9/15/2007 11:00p.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Shawn is sitting on the sofa. Aunt Viv is sitting next to him. "Aunt Viv: Well. I'm going to bed." Aunt Viv looks at Shawn and she pats his knee. "Aunt Viv: Shawn. I hope you realize how lucky you are that you weren't kicked out of school." "Shawn: Lucky? I gotta work everyday after school to pay off the desk repair." Uncle Phil is sitting in his green chair. "Uncle Phil: Before I cry myself to sleep." Uncle Phil stands up and he looks at Shawn. "Uncle Phil: May I leave you with a few words of advice?" Uncle Phil stares at the celiling. "Uncle Phil: If at some point tomorrow or during my lifetime for that matter. You come up with another brilliant idea for something to do at school. Stop. Do nothing. Just stand there. Doing nothing...Saying nothing. Arms at your side. Like a zombie...Breathing just enough to keep the blood circulating...And no more." Uncle Phil looks at Shawn. "Uncle Phil: Could you do that for me?" Shawn raises his head up and he looks around then he looks at Uncle Phil. "Shawn: Oh. I'm sorry Uncle Phil. I wasn't listening. What did you say?" Uncle Phil walks toward Shawn. Aunt Viv quickly gets up off the sofa and she cuts off his path. Aunt Viv leads Uncle Phil away. Uncle Phil turns around and he walks down the hallway. Aunt Viv turns back to Shawn. "Aunt Viv: Good night Shawn. Lock your door when you go to bed." Carlton is sitting in the chair. He stands up and he looks at Shawn. "Carlton: Shawn. Before I go to bed. I just want to say. I was proud of you tonight old sport. Kudos. You took your punishment like a man." "Shawn: That's all you got to say to me?" "Carlton: Good night?" "Shawn: Carlton. You five-oed me man." "Carlton: Excuse me?" "Shawn: You dimed me out." "Carlton: Pardon?" "Shawn: You tattled on me alright?" "Carlton: I did it for your own good. You weren't going to tell." Shawn stands up and he looks at Carlton. "Shawn: How do you know? You didn't even give me a chance. Your not worried about my own good. Your just worried about yourself." "Carlton: It may seem like that to you now but one day you will..." "Shawn: Oh Carlton shut up!...man. I know what this is about. You thought you was this big hot shot at school and I was gonna do your little charity case but I ended up taking your juice." Carlton walks around the room. "Carlton: Shawn. Let me explain something to you. In this society we have this silly little thing called order and we have rules to preserve that order." Carlton turns back to Shawn. "Carlton: If we let people break the rules there would be chaos." Shawn approches Carlton. "Shawn: We have rules where I come from too. And they say you don't rat on people." "Carlton: Shawn. The more you cling to your old ways and refuse to listen to reality the harder it is going to be for you to fit in with my friends." Shawn laughs. "Shawn: You just don't get it do you man? I don't want your friends alright? If I woke up one morning and I had all of your friends. And I was an Alligaroo. And I wore those cute shirts with the horses on them. I'd jump off Joan C. Edwards stadium and I'd hope to catch my eyelid on a nail." Carlton shakes his head. "Carlton: With quips like that its no wonder your the toast of the town." Shawn smirks and he shakes his head as he looks toward the floor. "Carlton: Good night Shawn." Carlton walks upstairs. Geoffrey walks into the room. Shawn turns to Geoffrey. "Geoffrey: Master Shawn." Shawn sits on the arm of the sofa. "Geoffrey: I have been informed that due to your new after school employment. You will no longer be requiring your customary 4p.m. snack. Could this be true?" Shawn lets out a sigh. "Shawn: Yeah. Afraid so G. I might not even get home til dinner time. If that early." "Geoffrey: What a pity. Out of curiosity just what is the nature of your enforced labor?" "Shawn: Kitchen duty. Fetching, cleaning, carrying. That kind of stuff." "Geoffrey: Indeed...Oh well...Chin up." Geoffrey walks off into the kitchen. Shawn lets out another sigh as he looks toward the floor. Suddenly Geoffrey bursts out laughing. Shawn raises his head and he looks toward the kitchen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/4/2007 12:00a.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house "Shawn: Picture this if you will. My man Shawn in the kitchen with a hair net on his head. If that's not a scary thought. I don't know what is." The girls agree. "Shawn: So look. You all gotta do me a favor. Raise your right hand. Alright. I want your solemn promise that if any of you meet Shawn you won't tell him that I told you this story. Okay? Swear?" "Sasha: I swear. Shawn." "Ashley: Shawn's cold busted." Shawn smirks. Part 31: The Ultimate Sacrifice? 12/5/2007 8:00p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Trish and Victoria are in the living room. Taker is gone. Snake is watching tv in the back room. Trish and Victoria are playing Halo 3 online. The match just ended and their team pwned. Before Victoria is able to start the next match Dante walks into the room. "Dante: So tell me. What is the Doctor's reason for not letting Angela come home on the 2nd?" "Victoria: The doc wanted to make 100% sure that the baby is healthy and that the tests weren't false readings." "Dante: Hm. Better to be safe than sorry I guess. Its just that Angela must want to come home badly and I'm sure she feels like a prisoner there." "Victoria: Yeah. Must suck. Thank God I'm never having kids." Dante sits down in Taker's chair and he watches as Victoria and Trish begin to pwn again. Trish gets charged by 3 guys and she grabs rockets as she charges them and she jumps and she fires and blows them up. Triple kill. Dante laughs. "Dante: Ha. Nice." The match ends with their team pwning again. Big win of 50-25. Suddenly the door unlocks and opens and Taker walks in with Angie. Angie is holding her baby. "Victoria: Hey. There she is. Welcome home Angie." "Angie: Thanks. So glad to be back." Angie takes a look around the room. "Angie: God. Feels like its been forever since I was here and its only been about a week." Victoria and Trish walk over to Angie and they look at the baby. "Victoria: Hey little one." Dante gets up and he walks over to her. "Dante: Hey." Angie looks at Dante. "Dante: What's the little miracles name?" Angie smiles as she looks at the child then back at Dante. "Angie: Her name is Annaliese." "Dante: Annaliese...That's a nice name." "Trish: Can I hold her?" Angie looks at Trish. "Angie: Sure." Angie hands Annaliese to Trish. Trish holds her as she sits down on the sofa. Victoria smiles. "Victoria: Glad to have you back Angie. Hasn't been the same without you." Victoria and Angie hug. "Angie: Oh. Thank you so much sweetie. I'm so glad to be home. Let me tell you. Hospital food is the worst stuff I've ever had to eat in my life." They laugh. "Dante: I'm glad everything has come together for you." Dante pats Angie on the back as she walks over to Taker's chair. Victoria sits on the sofa and they play Halo. Dante turns back to where Taker was but Taker has gone outside. Dante steps out on the porch and he closes the door behind him. Taker stands on the walkway leading away from the porch. Dante walks up behind him. "Dante: Hey...I'm sorry I wasn't there for you guys during Angela's time in the hospital. I mean. That had to be rough on you guys wondering if your daughter was gonna survive or not. But I had to keep training. I can't let Wrath get ahead of me. I have to stay ontop of my game." "Undertaker: I understand Dante. I would rather you stay focused on Wrath than worry about our problems. You have your own problems to worry about. We don't need pity." Dante nods. "Dante: I understand. I'm happy Annaliese is healthy. No child should be taken in the dawn of life. Take care of her. And take care of Angela." Dante starts off toward Huntington. Taker looks at Dante. "Undertaker: Dante." Dante stops and he looks at Taker. "Dante: Yeah?" "Undertaker: ...Where are you going?" "Dante: I'm taking a trip into town. For some reason I got a feeling I won't be back." Dante turns around and he walks off. Dante disappears into the darkness. Taker closes his eyes. After a moment Taker opens his eyes and he looks toward where Dante went. "Undertaker: Wrath." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/5/2009 10:00p.m. Location: Huntington, West Virginia Pl: Dante: 213,000. Wrath: 180,000 Its a cool rainy night. Dante walks around the streets of Huntington. Dante stands on a street corner. A few cars drive by. Dante lowers his head and he looks toward the ground. "Dante: I can't allow Wrath to defeat me. For some reason...I feel like I can't win. But...I have to win. For Taker, Angela, Annaliese, Trish, and Victoria. I can't let them down...No matter what happenes...I will not surrender to these demon's! I'll defeat Wrath or die trying!" Suddenly a young college girl lets out a bloody scream. Dante quickly raises his head and he looks toward her. A dark figure stands behind her and it snaps her neck. The young girl's lifeless body falls to the ground. "Dante: Hey!" Dante's anger raises. The dark figure quickly runs off. Dante gives chase. "Dante: Hey!" The dark figure runs into an ally. Dante follows it close behind but he quickly loses it. Dante stops and he takes a close look around the dimly lit ally. "Dante: I know your here..." Dante slowly walks deeper into the ally. He looks from his left to his right. "Dante: Show yourself! I know its you Wrath! Come out you coward!" Dante stops and he studies a dark shadow like figure in the shadows. Suddenly Wrath leaps down on a dumpster and he jumps at Dante. Dante turns to Wrath. Dante dives to the ground and Wrath lands on his feet. Dante quickly gets up. The 2 stare down. Dante's anger builds. "Dante: Wrath." Wrath laughs. "Wrath: Look at you. I feel your anger. Yes. Let it control you Dante. Let the anger take over...What's the matter? Ticked off that we roughed up your little friends? They had it coming!" "Dante: (Don't lose your cool Dante)" "Wrath: What's the matter with you?" "Dante: Your not getting into my head. Its time I end the torment you've caused me." "Wrath: You can't beat me. I won't allow it." The rain continues to fall. The 2 continue to stare down. "Wrath: ...Die Dante!" The warriors charge and their fists connect into eachothers face. Wrath throws a knee. Dante jumps back and he dashes in connecting a fist into Wrath's stomach. Dante lifts Wrath up and he connects with a vertical suplex. Wrath quickly gets up. Dante throws a punch. Wrath ducks under it and he connects 2 flaming fists into Dante's stomach then Wrath connects a hard flame kick to the head. Dante stumbles back. Wrath fires a Kamehameha wave that hits Dante head on. Dante flies out of the ally and into a telephone pole. The live wires fall into a puddle of water. Dante is shocked by the high voltage. "Dante: Gahhhh!" Wrath laughs as he walks out of the ally. " Wrath: Its over." Wrath begins Charging a Kamehameha. "Wrath: See? You shouldn't have resisted! Now its too late...Die!" Wrath fires the Charging Kamehameha. (Indestructable by Disturbed) "Dante: No!" Dante uses instant transmission. He appears behind Wrath. Dante fires a Fire Kamehameha. Wrath is hit and sent spirling into his Charing Kamehameha. "Dante: I'm not done yet Wrath. This is only the beginning!" (Indestructable fades) (Dante's theme) "Dante: I'm through being you puppet. I'm through feeling nothing but rage and hatred...Its time I show you a new kind of hate." Dante runs at Wrath and he jumps and he connects with a hard knee to the face. Wrath stumbles back and he holds his nose. Dante grabs Wrath and he knees him in the gut 3X. Dante lifts Wrath up and he connects with 3 rib crackers on his knee. Dante throws Wrath up into the air. He jumps and he connects a double axe handle to the neck. Wrath flies into the ground. Dante fires Fire Blast. Dante charges Wrath from behind. Wrath teleports behind Dante and he fires Charging Kamehameha. Dante falls to the ground. (Dante's theme fades) "Wrath: Foolish boy...You cannot defeat me." Dante struggles to get up. "Wrath: Stay down!" Wrath rushes Dante and he pins him to the ground. Wrath rams his head into the pavement 5X. Dante is busted open. Wrath slams Dante's head into the pavement again and he gets up and he stomps on his head. Dante lays motionless. Wrath stands above the fallen Dante. Wrath laughs. Wrath turns and he walks away. "Wrath: I think I'll go kill Trish just to have some fun." Wrath laughs. "Dante: No...No!" Dante stumbles around. "Wrath: Its too late." Dante's rage builds and he powers up into his Devil Trigger form. "Dante: I renounce you foul beast and no longer does the demon blood flow through me..." "Wrath: What is this!?" "Dante: It doesn't matter what happenes to me. I'll glady sacrifice myself to ensure the safety of my friends." Dante charges Wrath. Dante hits a hard knee to the gut. Wrath is stunned. Dante slams his elbow down on Wrath's neck. Wrath drops to his knees. Dante locks his arms around Wrath's neck and he punches him in the face 5X. Dante then throws a kick at Wrath's chest. Wrath catches Dante's leg and he spins around and he throws Dante into a building. Dante crashes into the building and the celiling falls on him. Wrath smiles and he laughs. Suddenly Dante comes charging out of the rubble. Wrath looks shocked. "Wrath: Huh?" Dante connects with a kick to the head. Wrath flies back into a building. Wrath gets up and he looks at Dante. The 2 stare down. Wrath's anger builds. Wrath and Dante begin to charge each other. "Wrath: Ahhhhh!" "Dante: Ahhhhh!" A Charging Kamehameha forms in Wrath's hands. A Charging Kamehameha also forms in Dante's hands. The 2 meet and they throw their attacks. Both are drilled and the area explodes. 4 buildings come crashing to the ground. Smoke raises from the rubble. The scene slowly pans out. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/5/2007 10:30p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Undertaker is seated in his chair. Angie is on the sofa. Suddenly Undertaker's eyes widen. "Undertaker: Ahh!" Angie quickly looks at Taker. "Angie: Honey. What is it?" Taker looks at Angie. "Undertaker: Something's happened." Taker gets up and he walks into the back room. "Undertaker: Snake, Trish. Stay here with Angie. Victoria. Come with me. Now!" "Victoria: Geez Taker. What's up?" Taker stares at Victoria. Taker then turns and he walks through the living room and he goes out the front door. Victoria and Trish look at each other. "Snake: Man. He seemed pretty ticked off. You better get moving." Victoria walks into the living room. Victoria puts on her black leather jacket and she slips her flips onto her feet. Victoria walks out the door and she gets in Taker's truck. Taker drives off. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/5/2007 10:45p.m. Location: Huntington, West Virginia Victoria is shocked as she look around the city. "Victoria: Oh my God." "Undertaker: This is no doubt the place where Dante and Wrath had the showdown." Taker spots the rubble where Dante and Wrath blew up. "Undertaker: There!" Taker pulls the truck over beside the road. Taker and Victoria get out of the truck. Taker walks over to the rubble. Victoria follows him. "Undertaker: This is where the final blow took place...Dante didn't walk away...Dig." Taker and Victoria start to dig through the rubble. "Victoria: Taker...Does this mean that Wrath is still roaming around out there?" "Undertaker: I don't think so...It seems both were completely destroyed but let's hope Dante survived." "Victoria: ...Um. Taker...I don't think Dante survived." Taker turns to Victoria. Victoria holds up Dante's amulet. Taker stares at the amulet then he turns and he walks back toward the truck. Victoria follows him back to the truck. Taker gets in the truck and he starts it up. Victoria puts one foot in and she stops and she looks at the rubble. "Victoria: -Whisper- ...Rest in peace Dante." Victoria gets in the truck and Taker makes a U turn and they drive off. The scene slowly pans out dramatically. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/5/2007 11:00p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Taker pulls up outside the house and he shuts the truck off. Taker and Victoria get out. Taker steps up on the porch and Victoria follows. Taker opens the door and he steps inside. Victoria walks in close behind. Angie is sitting on the sofa holding Annaliese. Angie looks over at Taker. "Angie: Hey." Taker stares at Angie for a second then he walks down the hall and he opens the sliding glass door and he steps out on the back deck and he closes the door back. Angie looks at Victoria. "Angie: What's wrong? He's very disturbed." "Victoria: Dante and Wrath fought tonight." "Angie: -Gasp- Oh no. What happened?" "Victoria: Well. A small area of the city is in ruins and who knows how many people were killed but we found the place where the final blow happened. There was alot of blood in the rubble and...We found this." Victoria holds up Dante's amulet. Angie's eyes widen. "Angie: Ohh. Its Dante's necklace. He never let that out of his sight. It was never more than 2 feet from him." "Victoria: Yeah. It was special to him. His mother gave it to him before she died." "Angie: Ohh." Victoria lets out a sigh. Victoria walks off into the back room and she sets the amulet down on the nightstand. Victoria looks at the amulet then she turns around and she walks back into the living room. The scene pans in on the amulet and it gives off a slight flash. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/5/2007 11:30p.m. Location: The Underworld The scene shows a view of The Underworld. Suddenly Hades screams and he explodes. "Hades: Arghhhh!" (Scene shifts) Lust is planted against the wall. Lust slides off the wall and there's a body print where he was. Hades walks around his chamber. His anger builds. "Hades: Wrath failed! I can't believe Dante beat him! There was something about that necklace." "Lust: It looked like a normal necklace to me." "Hades: No...Its not normal. It almost looks like the amulet that unlocks the entrance to The Underworld. But it can't be...Can it?" Hades stops and he watches a replay of the battle between Dante and Wrath. "Hades: There's no doubt. That's the amulet." Hades turns to Lust. "Hades: Lust! We need to get the amulet so we can ensure our victory. If they can't reach us. They can't stop us." "Lust: Sounds like a plan but Undertaker isn't going to just willing give up the amulet." "Hades: If he knew the power it holds he wouldn't give it up. They have no idea what they have." "Lust: Then why do we need to worry about it when they don't even know what it is?" "Hades: Because sooner or later Undertaker will figure out what it is...If he hasn't already. Still we need Trish out of the picture. Just incase we can't get the amulet." "Lust: Don't worry sire. I'll ensure our victory. I will not fail you." "Hades: No need to worry Lust. I'm gonna ensure this victory myself. And I'm gonna ensure it tonight." Lust looks confused. "Lust: So your gonna kill Trish?" Hades smirks. "Hades: No. I'm not gonna kill her and neither are you." "Lust: Huh?" "Hades: Someone very near and dear to her is gonna kill her." Hades laughs as he leaves his chamber. His laugh echos throughout The Underworld. Hades walks down the long dark corridor and he walks into Christy's chamber. Christy lays on the floor fast asleep. Her clothes are slightly torn. Hades stands above her. Hades smirks as he raises his hands above Christy. "Hades: You my Queen...Your gonna ensure our victory...You rebelled and refused to kill Trish but you will not rebell this time...You will kill her...This will not fail." Hades laughs echos throughout The Underworld. The scene zooms in on the wall and Hades shadow is seen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/6/2007 12:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Angie, Trish, and Victoria are the only ones at the house. Taker has taken Snake out into the woods. Trish sits in the floor. Victoria sits back on the sofa. She has her feet propped up on the coffee table. Angie sits in Taker's chair with little Annaliese sitting on her lap. The 3 are watching SpongeBob. The episode Graveyard Shift. Victroia laughs. "Victoria: Ha. Gotta love this episode." Victoria looks at Angie. "Victoria: Hey Angie. I'm watching SpongeBob...At night." The 3 laugh. A few moments later Angie looks over at Victoria. "Angie: Victoria. Can you do me a really big favor?" Victoria looks at Angie. "Victoria: Sure. Anything." "Angie: Can you mind Annaliese while I clean up? I haven't had a shower since I came home." "Victoria: Soiltenly Angie. I'll mind Annaliese. -Mumbles like Popeye- but will Annaliese mind me? -Laughs like Popeye-" Angie smiles as she gets up. "Angie: Thank you so much. I owe you big time." Angie hands Annaliese to Victoria. Victoria holds her on her lap. "Angie: I won't be long. I promise." Angie walks off into the back room. "Victoria: Take your time. No rush." A few moments pass. "Trish: Man. I still can't believe those demon's killed mom." "Victoria: Hmph. I can." "Trish: But really. I'm glad that I got to meet her its just that I didn't really connect with her. I don't understand why. I wonder if perhaps she was really our mother or if the Underworld is playing mind games with us." "Victoria: No. It was her. Trust me. I guess you just didn't spend enough time with her. You really didn't talk with her much when she was here." "Trish: Yeah I know. I feel really bad. I really wish I could have got to know her." "Victoria: I don't think your missing much. I wouldn't worry about it." "Trish: Well...I'm really glad she didn't know about my dark past." "Victoria: Dark past?" "Trish: Well...Victoria I've had alot of trouble controlling my sexual emotions and well...I've done it a few times." "Victoria: Your kidding?" Victoria smirks as she looks at Trish. "Victoria: Wow. Your really not as sweet and innocent as you look." "Trish: I'm confused because everyone's not like that. How do you control your emotions?" "Victoria: Hm. I don't think about it." "Trish: You mean you've never wanted to do it?" "Victoria: I can honestly say yes. To be honest I don't know why people get so worked up over it. I think sex is way overrated." "Trish: I wish I could say the same thing. I haven't really thought about it much since the last time I did it. The thing that scares me is I really liked it. And recently I've been thinking about it. And well. Needless to say my emotions have started running wild again and I'm afriad I'm gonna end up doing it again and part of me wants to and the other part says no way." "Victoria: I can't tell you what to do Trish and I can't give you any advice. All I can say is that in the end its really not worth it. Your just disgracing yourself. Sex is just not cool. Remember that." Trish nods. "Trish: I know." Victoria closes her eyes. "Trish: -Whisper- Didn't help me any but whatever. What happenes happenes." Angie walks back into the room. Her hair has been washed and dryed and she's in her night clothes. "Angie: Ah. It feels so nice to be clean." Victoria opens her eyes and she looks at Angie. Trish yawns as she looks at the clock "12:10a.m." "Trish: Well. I'm gonna go to bed. I'm getting tired." Trish pats Victoria on the knee. "Trish: Night." "Victoria: Night." Trish gets up and she walks into the back room. Victoria hands Annaliese to Angie. Angie smiles. "Angie: Thank you so much Victoria." "Victoria: Your welcome." Angie sits down on the sofa next to Victoria. Victoria gets up and she walks over to the front door. She slips her flips onto her feet and she opens the front door. "Angie: Victoria. Where are you going?" "Victoria: I just need to take a walk. I won't be gone long." "Angie: Okay...Be careful out there." Victoria steps out on the porch and she closes the door. Its a fairly warm December night as the temp stands at 60F. Victoria is wearing blue jeans and no shirt. Only a black bra. Her hair is pulled back in a ponytail. (Street of Dreams by Guns N' Roses) Victoria stands on the porch for a moment. Angie looks out the side window and she looks at Victoria. Victoria lets out a sigh and she steps off the porch and she walks off toward the woods. The scene pans in on Angie as she watches Victoria walk off. (Scene shifts) Victoria walks through the woods. She comes to a clearing and she stops and she looks up at the moon. Not a cloud in the sky. A soft wind blows. Victoria closes her eyes and she takes in the fresh night air then she walks on. (Scene shifts) Victoria sits on a rock by the lake. She throws rocks in the water. She skips one across the water and it flops in the center of the lake. Victoria smirks as she looks down into the water and she stares at her own reflection. Suddenly her reflection changes to the image of Christy. Victoria stares at the reflection and she slowly drops to her knees. Victoria raises her head up and she looks toward the sky. A tear rolls down her cheek as she closes her eyes. Victoria stands up and she places her left hand on her neck. Victoria just stares out at the lake. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/6/2007 2:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Victoria steps up on the porch. She opens the front door and she walks in. She kicks her flips off her feet and she lets out a sigh. Carson(Victoria's Golden Retriever) raises his head and he looks at her. Victoria closes the door and she walks over to the sofa and she sits down. Carson picks up his ball and he leaps up on the sofa. Victoria looks at him. "Victoria: No Carson. I don't want to play." Victoria pets him. Carson sets the ball in Victoria's hand. Victoria smiles. "Victoria: Okay. One time. You better catch it." Carson climbs down off the sofa and he steps out into the center of the room. Victoria gives a slight toss and Carson catches the ball. He walks back up to the sofa. Carson drops his ball and he climbs up on the sofa and he starts licking Victoria's face. Victoria tries to hold him back. "Victoria: Okay. Alright. I know you love me." Carson stops licking her and Victoria pets him. "Victoria: I love you too." Carson lays down and he lays his head on Victoria's leg. Victoria continues to pet him. Angie walks into the living room and she looks at Victoria. "Angie: Victoria? Where have you been? I've been worried sick. You've been gone for 2 hours. "Victoria: I just needed to take a walk. Clear my head." Angie walks up to Victoria. "Angie: There's more to it than that...You haven't been yourself...What's wrong?" Victoria stares at Angie and she shakes her head "Victoria: Nothing." "Angie: Victoria." Victoria gets up. Carson leaps down on the floor. "Victoria: Angie please." Victoria walks past her and she heads toward the hallway. Angie turns to Victoria. "Angie: Victoria." Victoria stops and she looks toward the floor. "Angie: How can I help you if you close me out? Now something's wrong. I want to help you." Carson sits down close to Victoria and he looks at her and he lets out a wimper. Victoria raises her head and she turns to Angie and she's fighting back the tears. "Victoria: I miss my mommy." Angie quickly embraces Victoria. "Angie: Oh sweetie. Its okay. Its only natural that you miss her." "Victoria: I'm such a wuss. I promised myself I'd never cry." "Angie: No. No. Sweetie listen. Its okay. Your not a wuss. Your hurting and you need to let it out. Never be afraid to cry." "Victoria: I don't know what to do Angie. I mean. I spent my whole life searching for her and finally I find her and then she gets taken from me. I just wish there was something I could have done. I wish I could have been there for her." "Angie: I know...I know. But nothing can be done now. All you can do now is make these demon's pay for their sins." Victoria leans back and she wipes her eyes. "Victoria: I can't do it Angie." Angie looks confused. "Angie: Can't do what sweetie?" Victoria walks over to the door and she puts her flips back on. She motions for Carson to come to her. "Victoria: Come here Carson." Carson runs over to Victoria. Victoria pets him and then she looks back at Angie. "Victoria: I can't fight anymore." Angie looks shocked. "Angie: Victoria...You have to fight. The others need you." Victoria starts to fight back the tears again. "Victoria: I'm sorry Angie...I have nothing left to fight for." Victoria turns to the door. She opens the door and Carson runs out on the porch. Victoria walks out and she steps off the porch and she walks off into the woods. Carson follows her. Angie stands at the door and she watches Victoria walk on. Angie lets out a sigh. "Angie: I wish I could help her...She's in so much pain..." Part 32: Deck The Halls 12/6/2007 9:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Its a nice cool December morning. Not a single cloud in the sky. Angie is the only one awake. She's in the kitchen seeking something to eat. Suddenly the front door opens and Taker walks in. He closes the door back. Angie looks at him. "Angie: Hey. Have you been out all night?" "Undertaker: Yeah." Angie approches Taker. "Angie: Why was you out all night?" "Undertaker: Trying to figure out what to do next. You know Angie...There's something not normal about Dante's necklace. Where did Victoria put it?" "Angie: She took it in the back room." Taker walks into the back room where Trish sleeps. Taker spots it sitting on the desk. Taker picks it up and he walks back into the living room. Taker stops dead in his tracks and he stares at the amulet. Angie looks at Taker. "Angie: What is it?" "Undertaker: I don't know...I can sense something. If only I could channle this energy...I'm much too tired now though." "Angie: You need to get some rest. Are you hungry?" Taker nods. "Undertaker: I'll try to figure this out later." "Angie: I'll fix you something. How does ham and eggs sound?" "Undertaker: Fine. Fine." Taker walks back into the back room as Angie walks into the kitchen. Taker sets the amulet down on the desk and he walks back through the living room and into the kitchen. Taker sits down at the table and he drinks orange juice. "Angie: Speaking of Victoria. We need to talk about her." "Undertaker: What's happened?" "Angie: She's hurting. The death of her mom has really hit her hard. I knew something was wrong. She tried to avoid talking about it." "Undertaker: Where is she?" "Angie: She took off in the middle of the night. She took Carson with her." "Undertaker: She loves that dog more than herself." "Angie: I know." "Undertaker: We won't be seeing her again." "Angie: What do you mean?" "Undertaker: She's a wonderer Angie. Its not unusual for her to be here in Huntington today and then be somewhere up in Ohio tomorrow. And the fact that she took Carson with her means that she's not coming back...Did she take any of her belongings?" "Angie: No. She just took Carson and left. I'm really worried about her. She's hardly dressed for the weather out there." "Undertaker: What did she have on when she left?" "Angie: Hardly nothing. Some old jeans. No shirt just a bra and her flips." Taker lets out a sigh. "Undertaker: Well. I need to try and find her. She won't be able to survive more than 48 hours out there dressed like that. Did you talk with her before she left?" "Angie: Yeah. She took a walk about midnight and she didn't return until about 2a.m. I talked to her when she came back. She broke down and started crying. I've never seen her cry." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flashback to 2a.m. Angie walks into the living room and she looks at Victoria. "Angie: Victoria? Where have you been? I've been worried sick. You've been gone for 2 hours. "Victoria: I just needed to take a walk. Clear my head." Angie walks up to Victoria. "Angie: There's more to it than that...You haven't been yourself...What's wrong?" Victoria stares at Angie and she shakes her head "Victoria: Nothing." "Angie: Victoria." Victoria gets up. Carson leaps down on the floor. "Victoria: Angie please." Victoria walks past her and she heads toward the hallway. Angie turns to Victoria. "Angie: Victoria." Victoria stops and she looks toward the floor. "Angie: How can I help you if you close me out? Now something's wrong. I want to help you." Carson sits down close to Victoria and he looks at her and he lets out a wimper. Victoria raises her head and she turns to Angie and she's fighting back the tears. "Victoria: I miss my mommy." Angie quickly embraces Victoria. "Angie: Oh sweetie. Its okay. Its only natural that you miss her." "Victoria: I'm such a wuss. I promised myself I'd never cry." "Angie: No. No. Sweetie listen. Its okay. Your not a wuss. Your hurting and you need to let it out. Never be afraid to cry." "Victoria: I don't know what to do Angie. I mean. I spent my whole life searching for her and finally I find her and then she gets taken from me. I just wish there was something I could have done. I wish I could have been there for her." "Angie: I know...I know. But nothing can be done now. All you can do now is make these demon's pay for their sins." Victoria leans back and she wipes her eyes. "Victoria: I can't do it Angie." Angie looks confused. "Angie: Can't do what sweetie?" Victoria walks over to the door and she puts her flips back on. She motions for Carson to come to her. "Victoria: Come here Carson." Carson runs over to Victoria. Victoria pets him and then she looks back at Angie. "Victoria: I can't fight anymore." Angie looks shocked. "Angie: Victoria...You have to fight. The others need you." Victoria starts to fight back the tears again. "Victoria: I'm sorry Angie...I have nothing left to fight for." Victoria turns to the door. She opens the door and Carson runs out on the porch. Victoria walks out and she steps off the porch and she walks off into the woods. Carson follows her. Angie stands at the door and she watches Victoria walk on. Angie lets out a sigh. "Angie: I wish I could help her...She's in so much pain..." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Taker lets out a sigh. "Undertaker: Well. It seems we've lost another warrior. First Dante now Victoria. I'm not sure yet but I believe Hades may have turned the tides of the war." Angie lets out a sigh as she sits at the table. "Angie: I really wish that I could help her. She's in so much pain." Taker takes a bite out of the ham. "Undertaker: Well. Rather she's gonna fight or not. I still need to go look for her. Odds are she hasn't made it too far yet. We can't just leave her out there to die." "Angie: Good luck. I hope you find her." Taker nods. He gets up and he walks over to the front door. Taker opens the door and he walks out closing the door behind him. Angie just sits at the table. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/6/2007 12p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Undertaker steps up on the porch and he opens the door and walks in. Trish is sitting on the sofa. She's holding Annaliese on her lap. Angie comes walking down the hallway and she stops and she looks at Taker. "Angie: Hey...Did you find her?" Taker just looks at Angie and he shakes his head. "Undertaker: She's still out there somewhere. I'm too tired to continue. Angie. Leave Annaliese with Trish and go search for her. If we don't find her before night fall she could die during the night." Angie nods. "Angie: Okay." Taker walks down the hall and into the back room. Angie looks at Trish. "Angie: Trish?" "Trish: Hey its no problem Angie. I don't mind to take care of Annaliese. You just go out there and bring Victoria home." Angie nods. "Angie: Okay. Alright." Trish holds Annaliese on her lap. Angie puts her shoes on and then she puts her jacket on. "Angie: Let's hope I can find her." "Trish: Good luck." Angie opens the door and she walks out on the porch. She closes the door back. Angie steps off the porch and she walks toward the woods. She walks alittle ways into the woods and she stops and she takes a close look around. She then continues deeper into the woods. 5 hours later Angie returns to the house. The sky is covered with clouds and snow begins to fall. Angie steps up on the porch. She stops and she turns and she looks at the woods. Angie closes her eyes as she looks toward the ground. "Angie: -Whispers- God...Please take care of Victoria. Please don't let anything happen to her. She's so young. So innocent. She doesn't deserve any of this. Please bring her home safely." Angie raises her head and she opens her eyes. She looks out into the forest. A deer has wondered out and its feeding on the edge of the woods. Angie turns around and she walks inside. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/7/2007 1:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Its a very cold night. The temp stands at 25F. The snow continues to fall with 3 inches already on the ground. Not a single light is on in the house. Victoria steps up on the porch. She looks at Carson. "Victoria: -Whispers- Lay down Carson. And don't move until I tell you too. Don't make a sound." Carson lays down on the porch and he lays his head down and he keeps his eyes locked on Victoria. Victoria walks up to the front door and she takes her flips on and she gets down on her knees and she begins to pick the lock. "Victoria: -Whispers- Come on...Come on." The lock quietly clicks. Victoria smiles. "Victoria: -Whispers- Alright." Victoria sneaks into the house. She closes the door behind her. She pulls a flash light from her pocket and she turns it on. Victoria quietly makes her way into the back room. She gets her gym bag and she takes her clothes from the box and she stuffs them into the bag. She then gets her socks and stuff and she puts them in the bag. "Victoria: -Whispers- Alright. Almost done." Victoria picks up her Dallas Cowboys hat off the desk and she puts it in the bag. She makes her way back into the living room and she takes her Dallas Cowboys blanket from the sofa and she puts it in the bag. She then takes her sneakers and her black leather jacket. "Victoria: -Whispers- Alright. Simple enough." Victoria locks the door back from the inside and she steps out on the porch and she quietly closes the door back behind her. Carson is still in the same spot. Victoria sets her bag down on the porch and she takes a Dallas Cowboys sweat shirt and she puts it on. She then changes her jeans and she puts socks on her feet then she puts her sneakers on. She puts her black leather jacket on and she pulls her hair out of a ponytail and she puts the Dallas Cowboys hat on. She puts her dirty clothes and her flips in the bag and she picks it up and she looks at Carson. "Victoria: -Whispers- Alright. Let's go." Victoria steps off the porch. Carson gets up and he follows her. Victoria walks into the woods. (Road To Nowhere by Ozzy Osbourne) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/7/2007 8:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Taker wakes up. Angie is digging through the closet. Taker gets up and he looks at her. "Undertaker: What are you looking for?" Angie looks at Taker. "Angie: Hey. I'm sorry. Did I wake you?" Taker shakes his head. "Angie: Well. I'm not looking for anything. Its just that I noticed some stuff missing from the living room and I thought perhaps someone might have broken in last night." Taker stands up and he approches Angie. "Undertaker: What's missing?" Angie looks back into the closet. "Angie: Well. The blanket from the sofa. And there was a hat here on the desk yesterday. And Victoria's sneaker's are missing. Come to think of it her jacket is missing as well. It seems the only things missing belong to her." Taker smirks. "Undertaker: Don't worry Angie. Someone did come in last night but it wasn't a thief. We wasted our time searching the forest yesterday. Victoria was never in any danger at all." Angie smirks as she looks at Taker. "Angie: What do you mean?" "Undertaker: Victoria stayed close to the house. Probably just on the inside of the forest. Then when night fell. She waited for us to go to bed and keep in mind she would have known the best time to break in. She came back during the night and took her stuff. She outsmarted us Angie." "Angie: Sly like a fox. Well. At least she's not out there freezing to death. I guess she's alot smarter than we gave her credit for." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 11:00a.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Geoffrey has a puppet on his hand. "Geoffrey: -Funny voice- And then. Came the thrid day of Christmas. And still no one had made a present for Santa. Whom shall I ask to help me boys and girls?" Shawn and Ashley are sitting on the sofa. Ashley's asleep. Shawn smiles and he raises his arm. "Shawn: Ooo ooo ooo. I know. I know." Shawn points at Geoffrey. "Shawn: Ask the reindeer on your left hand." Geoffrey has a puppet on his left hand as well. "Geoffrey: -Deep voice.- I'd love to help. But I have my hooves full as it is." Shawn laughs and he claps his hands. He then points at the puppet. "Shawn: I get it. His hooves are full. He don't have no hands. I get it. Hey G. I did not see that coming man. Hey this is cool. Right Ash?" Shawn turns to Ashley and he taps her on the knee. Ashley's asleep. "Shawn: Ashley!" Ashley raises up. "Ashley: I'm awake." Geoffrey stands up. "Geoffrey: I don't know why I bother. Its impossible to compete with tawdry entertainment. Like VH1 Classic. Xbox. Nintendo. The new children on the block." Geoffrey turns around and he walks into the kitchen. Shawn stands up and he looks at Ashley. "Shawn: Thanks alot Ash. Now I'll never know how the story ends. Pardon me for caring but I really wanted to know what Santa got for Christmas." "Ashley: He doesn't get an actual gift Shawn. He gets the love of all the little children in the world." "Shawn: Really? What a gyp." Ashley stands up. "Ashley: Oh come on Shawn. Everyone knows there's no Santa Claus." "Shawn: Wait a minute. There is no Milli Vanilli...But there definitely is a Santa Claus." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 11:30a.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Ashley is sitting on the sofa in the game room. Shawn walks into the room with a piece of paper. "Shawn: Alright Ash. Let's write our letters to Santa Claus." "Ashley: Shawn." "Shawn: Hey. Here. You can help me with my list." "Ashley: Shawn. Don't you have anything better to do with Christmas vacation than writing a silly letter?" "Shawn: What are you gonna do with your vacation? Play with your friends?" "Ashley: I wish I had someone to play with but every year my friends all go out of town with their families and I'm stuck here all alone." "Shawn: Ashley. You can still do something to have fun while your here." "Ashley: I'm going to. I've decided to learn a new word every day." "Shawn: Ashley that's boring." "Ashley: Really? I think its very autodidactic." Shawn makes a face. Carlton walks into the room. "Carlton: Christmas vacation is finally here. God help me. I do love it so." Carlton takes his jacket off. "Ashley: I thought you liked school Carlton." Carlton turns to Ashley. "Carlton: Ash. I think Huntington High is one of the best schools in the country. Its academics are excellent. Its sports program is outstanding and the faculty is first rate. But around December 10th it all starts to get alittle old. Know what I mean?" Shawn looks at Carlton and he points at Ashley with his pen. "Shawn: Carlton. We got a problem. Your sister. 10 years old and doesn't know the meaning of Christmas." Ashley looks at Shawn. "Ashley: I know the meaning of undulate." Ashley gets up and she walks out of the room. Carlton stands up. "Carlton: I don't know where your going with this Christmas thing Shawn but I've got bigger fish to fry. I've got to raise $600 more dollars for my Glee Club ski trip." Carlton picks up a book on the table. "Shawn: Give you a dollar if you shave your head." Shawn laughs. Carlton looks at Shawn. "Carlton: I've booked the Alligaroos to sing at a bunch of Christmas parties. So if we make enough money. On Decmeber 26th we'll all be..." Carlton acts like he's skiing. Shawn smirks as he watches him. "Shawn: Imitating Jerry Lewis?" Carlton smirks. "Carlton: I've got to rehearse now." Carlton turns around. "Carlton: Hey guys. Let's use this room." The other members of the Alligaroos walk into the room. "Carlton: Alright let's start with our opening number." Carlton snaps his fingers. "Carlton: Five six five six seven and..." "Alligaroos: I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus. Underneath the misleto last night." "Carlton: She didn't hear me creep. Down the stairs to have a peek. She thought that I was..." "Shawn: Hold it." Shawn walks up to Carlton. "Shawn: What the bloody he** kinda song is that?" "Carlton: What do you mean?" "Shawn: A little kid sees his mom tongue wrestling with Santa Claus?" "Carlton: Shawn. Its really his father dressed up like Santa Claus." "Shawn: Oh...Well why'd he dress up like..." Shawn smirks. "Shawn: Oh oh oh. I get it. I dress up like Santa Claus. You dress up like the Easter Bunny. That makes me sick." Chad approches Shawn. "Chad: We're trying to put together a musical program for Jonathan's parents party tonight." "Cornflake: Jonathan's step-father is a record producer and he asked us not to do tired old Christmas carols." Jonathan hands a piece of paper to Shawn. "Jonathan: Here's our program." Shawn looks at the paper. "Shawn: Wait a minute. You don't bring me flowers...People who need people...The way we were." Shawn looks back at them. "Shawn: Who's coming down the chimney? SpongeBob SquarePants?" "Jonathan: You've been to my parents parties?" Shawn's eyes widen. He shakes his head as he tosses the paper down and he turns around and he walks out of the room. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 11:45a.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Shawn walks into the living room. Hilary is on the phone. "Hilary: That would be fantastic. Alright...Also I want to send a box of the fancy chocolate covered pretzels to Axl Rose." Shawn gives a funny look. "Hilary: Right. And the card should read. Axl. Saw these and immediately thought of you. Love Hilary. XXX." Shawn smirks and he puts his hands on his hips. "Hilary: Alright. Now send the same thing to Angus Young...Zakk Wylde...And Don Dokken." Shawn shakes his head. "Hilary: Great. Thanks." Hilary hangs up the phone. Shawn sits down on the sofa. "Hilary: Well. That takes care of the A list...Now should I send the box of pears or the meat thermometer to Bon Scott?" Shawn holds up his hand. "Shawn: Um...Hilary. I hate to inject some reality into these proceedings. But...Who are you trying to fool babe?" Hilary looks at Shawn. "Hilary: What do you mean?" "Shawn: Hill. You always walk around here fronting like you know all these famous people. You don't know nobody." Hilary smirks and she shakes her head. "Hilary: Shawn. You are so jaded and skeptical. You remind me so much of Malcolm Young." Hilary gets up and she walks off into the other room. Aunt Viv and Uncle Phil walk into the room. "Aunt Viv: Philip. We're spending an hour at your office party then we're coming home. I have too many papers to grade." "Uncle Phil: Okay. Okay. But first things first. Do you remember the names of all my partners wives?" "Aunt Viv: Yes." "Uncle Phil: Okay. Who is George Meyers wife?" "Aunt Viv: Eunice." Uncle Phil makes a buzzer sound. "Uncle Phil: That was last year. The new wifes name is Kelly." Aunt Viv looks shocked. "Aunt Viv: Kelly? Walters secretary?" "Uncle Phil: Mmm hm...Now. Who is Jack Fitzgerald's wife?" "Aunt Viv: Doris." "Uncle Phil: The correct answer is Heather. Formerly the muffin cart girl." "Aunt Viv: Wait a minute. How many new wives are gonna be at this party?" "Uncle Phil: Well let's just put it this way Vivian. Your the only repeat." Shawn stands up and he looks at Aunt Viv. "Shawn: Whoa. Hold up. You guys are going to a Christmas party?" "Aunt Viv: Well. Its just an office Christmas party." "Shawn: Man. I remember Christmas back in San Antonio. The house would be filled with the sounds of Christmas. Jingle bells and singing and laughing. Man. My mom sure does love Christmas. She always goes all out." "Uncle Phil: Well. I'll just go bring the car around." Uncle Phil walks out of the room. Aunt Viv walks by Shawn. Shawn follows her. "Shawn: Whoa. Hold up. Aunt Viv. Does this neighborhood do anything special for Christmas?" "Aunt Viv: Not really. Well last year. President Reagan's Secret Service agents dressed up as Santa Claus and warned everyone to keep their distance. That was kinda festive." "Shawn: Uh. Come on Aunt Viv. This is terrible. I mean. People in Huntington don't even know how to celebrate Christmas. I'm worried about Ashley." "Aunt Viv: What do you mean?" "Shawn: Well. Growing up in Huntington. She never had a real Christmas. I mean. There's no sledding. There's no caroling." Shawn waves his arms up and down. "Shawn: There's no one making snow angel's on the front law." Shawn looks around the room. "Shawn: I mean. Y'all don't even decorate the living room." "Aunt Viv: Yes we do. We've already started." Aunt Viv points the things out. "Aunt Viv: The poinsettias. The red candles." Aunt Viv walks over to the fire place. "Aunt Viv: And here's the beautiful crystal nativity your Uncle gave me for Christmas years ago." Shawn looks at it. "Shawn: Where the little baby Jesus at?" Aunt Viv points. "Aunt Viv: Right there." Shawn makes a face. "Shawn: That little disk?" Aunt Viv looks at Shawn. "Aunt Viv: There are more decorations coming. A wonderful shop in Charleston comes to the house. Sets up the tree and decorates it for us." Shawn crosses his arms. "Shawn: Do they open your presents and wear your sweaters for you too?" "Aunt Viv: Look. If you want to show Ashley alittle more of the Christmas spirit. Why don't you go to the shop. Pick up the decorations and then you and Ashley can decorate it yourself." Aunt Viv hands Shawn a card. Shawn smiles as he looks at it. "Aunt Viv: Okay?" Shawn looks at Aunt Viv. "Shawn: Well alright then." Shawn and Aunt Viv hug. Shawn then walks over to the door. "Shawn: Ashley." Shawn turns back to Aunt Viv. "Shawn: Hey. This is gonna be hype Aunt Viv. Hey. You have fun at that office Christmas party." "Aunt Viv: Thanks. I'm looking forward to meeting all the new wives. I hope they bring their barbie dolls." Aunt Viv walks out of the room. Ashley walks in. "Ashley Shawn. Were you vociferating for me?" Shawn makes a face. "Shawn: I got to get back to you on that. But anyway. You want to go into Charleston with me and pick up the Christmas decorations?" "Ashley: Okay." "Shawn: We can sing Christmas songs all the way there." "Ashley: Great. Here's one Carlton taught me." Shawn and Ashley walk into the hallway. "Ashley: Scattered pictures of a mile away." Shawn stops and he shakes his head. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 1:00p.m. Location: Charleston mall Shawn and Ashley walk into the store. Shawn looks around as they approch a goofy looking guy. The guy is standing there holding a figure. "Ashley: Um. Hi." "Shawn: Merry Christmas." "Guy: Mmm hm...Arn't these figure's outstanding?" Shawn just stares at the guy. "Guy: Their beyond outstanding. Deeply beyond. Their hand carved. We import them from Poland." The guy sets the figure down and he looks at Shawn. "Shawn: We're looking for some Christmas decorations." "Guy: Let me show you something that we're doing right now that's deeply happening." The guy walks around behind Shawn and Ashley and he looks up at a silly looking tree. Shawn looks at it and he makes a face. "Guy: Its a Caribbean Christmas tree. Its very big in London. Its beyond big. Its all about very hot oranges and very intense yellows. I feel its a very vibrant tree and I feel its a very important tree." Shawn stares at the guy. "Ashley: Well. We're just picking up the decorations for my mother. Mrs. Banks." The guy walks over to a box. "Guy: Yeah...She phoned and she told me that you'd be putting them up yourselves this year. Which is fine." He picks the box up and he sets it down in front of Shawn. "Guy: You'll save yourself alittle money. Which is a good thing. Because society is all about restraint." Shawn looks in the box and he pulls out a normal looking wreath. "Shawn: Is this the wreath for the door?" "Guy: Yeah...Let's talk about that wreath for a moment if you will. Last year I was so deeply into the distant salmons and the sandy beiges. But this year I went more with the muted roses with these little arrogant touches of celadon and periwinkle. I think it worked out quite nice." Shawn puts the wreath back into the box. "Shawn: Let's try something wild here you know? Do you have anything red or green or I don't know maybe something like a Santa Claus?" "Guy: Its been done." Shawn looks at the guy and he points away. "Shawn: Excuse us." Shawn and Ashley take a few steps away from the guy. "Shawn: Ashley. These decorations are wack. Look we're gonna save Aunt Viv alot of money and buy them somewhere else. Alright?" Ashley just shrugs her shoulders. "Shawn: Let's go." Shawn and Ashley start to walk out. "Guy: Excuse me. You forgot your box of decorations." Shawn approches the guy. "Shawn: Um. No. You see. We're going to do our own decorations this year. Its going to be about arrogant little elves and rambunctious reindeer you know? And little fat guys in red suits." Shawn slowly leans into the guys face. "Shawn: I think it will be deeply deeply cool." Shawn turns around and Shawn and Ashley walk out. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 5:30p.m. Location: Huntington Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv are finally on their way home. "Aunt Viv: We should have left that stupid office party awhile ago. I still have 30 papers to grade." "Uncle Phil: Look. We're both very busy but we can't work in the car. So why don't we take this time to relax a bit?" "Aunt Viv: Your right...Oh look how nicely they decorated the house on the corner." "Uncle Phil: Hm. Those white lights on the tree outside." "Aunt Viv: I know. Just the right touch of lights. Alittle goes along way you know?" "Uncle Phil: Hm...God I used to love Christmas when I was little. Now it just rushes by in one big blur." "Aunt Viv: Well. Christmas is more for kids...You know. Even though we're busy. I think we should do something nice for Shawn. I know he misses Christy. And it must be hard for him spending Christmas in a strange place." "Uncle Phil: Oh. Yeah. Your right sweetheart. We'll do something nice for him." Uncle Phil pulls up in the drive way. (Santa Claus Is Coming To Town) The house is very nicely decorated. Aunt Viv and Uncle Phil look shocked as they look around. Reindeer, Snowmen, Elves, Lights everywhere. And a big Santa on the roof. Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv look at each other. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 6:00p.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv enter the house and they walk into the living room. They both look shocked as they look around. Decorations are everywhere. A hard rock version of Run Run Rudolph played by Guns N' Roses is playing on the radio. Ashley walks into the room. "Ashley: Surprise!" "Aunt Viv: Ashley sweetie." "Uncle Phil: Where's Shawn?" Uncle Phil walks around the room. "Ashley: Arn't you surprised mommy?" Uncle Phil turns the radio off and he turns to Ashley. "Uncle Phil: Where is Shawn?" Ashley looks at Uncle Phil. "Ashley: I had so much fun with Shawn today. You can't believe it." Shawn walks into the living room. He's wearing Ozzy type sun glasses and he's got a Santa hat on. "Shawn: Surprise!" "Uncle Phil: Oh look its Shawn." Aunt Viv approches Shawn. "Aunt Viv: Shawn. What happened at the Christmas shop?" Shawn takes the glasses off. "Shawn: Aw...Aunt Viv they were trying to rip you off. You know. So me and Ashley. We went down to the Pick N' Grab." Aunt Viv looks at Ashley. The phone rings. Uncle Phil walks over to the phone. Uncle Phil picks up the phone. There's even decorations on the phone. Uncle Phil looks at the phone then he puts it to his ear. "Uncle Phil: Hello?...Yes this is Philip Banks...Ah. You saw our lights...The blinking Frosty The Snowman is riling your attack dogs." Uncle Phil hangs up. "Uncle Phil: Well. That's wonderful. Our neighbors are furious. We're gonna have to take these lights down." Uncle Phil starts to leave the room. Shawn approches Uncle Phil. "Shawn: Hey. Uncle Phil. I bet there's alot of neighbors that love those decorations. I mean certainly anyone who possesses good taste." The phone rings again. Shawn turns to the phone and he picks it up. "Shawn: Banks residence. Have a holly jolly Christmas...My brother you got a problem with my lights?...Why don't you come tell me that to my face then?...Hey. We can do whatever you wanna do. Its your world squirrel. I'm just trying to get a nut...Wha? What? We can do this. Whatever's clever Trevor. Ain't no thing but as chicken wing...Yeah. Alight." Shawn hangs up. Geoffrey walks into the living room. "Geoffrey: Madam. Sir. A group of your neighbors has assembled on your front lawn. They are looking at your Christmas decorations and growing enraged. They are threating to burn Frosty in effigy." "Uncle Phil: Well. We'd better get out there." Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv walk outside. Ashley walks up to Geoffrey. "Ashley: Geoffrey. Thanks for helping up put up those Christmas decorations." Shawn walks up to Geoffrey. "Shawn: Yeah man. I'd have never had the guts to climb up on that roof with that reindeer strapped on my back." "Geoffrey: Anything in the name of Christmas Master Shawn." Geoffrey looks toward the front door then back at Shawn. "Geoffery: Your Aunt and Uncle did not suspect anything did they?" Shawn and Ashley shake their head. "Shawn: Naw. Naw." "Geoffey: Still. I think its best we avoid eye contact for the rest of the evening." Shawn covers his eyes. "Shawn: 10-4." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 6:30p.m. Location: Uncle Phil's house Everyone is in the living room. The neighbors stand around. "Aunt Viv: Philip. Should I talk to them or do you want to?" "Uncle Phil: No I'll give it a try." "Carlton: Dad. Can I offer a suggestion?" "Uncle Phil: Sure." "Carlton: Well. Their our neighbors and their upset and its up to us to make sure this doesn't ruin their Christmas. There's only one way to do that. I think we should write a few checks." Aunt Viv shakes her head as she looks at Carlton. Uncle Phil just stares at him. "Uncle Phil: Sit down Carlton." "Carlton: As you wish father." Carlton sits down on the sofa. Uncle Phil looks at Shawn and Ashley. "Uncle Phil: I'm just going to have to tell them we'll take the decorations down as soon as we can." "Ashley: Can't we at least leave some of them up?" "Uncle Phil: Oh. I don't know. Maybe we can reach a compromise." Uncle Phil turns around and he looks at the neighbors. "Uncle Phil: Everybody. Now in keeping with the spirit of the season. I think we can discuss this rationally." "Guy: Property values in this neighborhood must be vigorously protected. Isn't that right Mr. Uesato?" The guy looks at a jap standing next to him. "Mr. Uesato: I'm afraid potential buyers aren't too crazy about the Kmart look." A lady looks at Aunt Viv: "Lady: You know dear. There are wonderful services that will come and decorate your house for you." "Aunt Viv: Yes I know. But this year our daughter and nephew decided to do the decorating themselves." "Lady: Oh I see. Are they very angry with you over something?" "Aunt Viv: No. Why?" "Lady: Well. This just reminds me of the summer my daughter Amanda turned 15 and tried to burn our house down." Geoffrey walks into the room. "Geoffrey: Master Shawn. There is a gentleman in the foyer who claims you had some harsh words with him on the phone." Shawn takes his glasses off and he walks toward Geoffrey. "Shawn: Yeah? That chump is here? Send him in." Aunt Viv stops Shawn. "Aunt Viv: Shawn. Fighting doesn't solve anything." "Shawn: Naw naw naw. Aunt Viv. Ain't gonna be no fight. I can tell by the sound of this guys voice on the phone I could take him in the minute." Shawn snaps his fingers. Shawn turns around and he walks toward Geoffrey. Evander Holyfield walks in. Shawn's eyes widen. Evander stares at Shawn. "Geoffrey: Mr. Evander Holyfield...The Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World." Geoffrey walks off. Shawn puts his hands on his hips then he puts his hand under his chin. Shawn then pats Evander on the shoulder. "Shawn: Nice champion." "Evander: I recognize your voice." Evander pokes Shawn in the chest. "Evander: You the chump I talk to on the telephone." Shawn's eyes widen and he shakes his head. "Shawn: -Mickey Mouse voice- Phone? I ain't talk to you on no phone." Hilary walks into the room. "Hilary: Evander." "Evander: Hilary." Shawn looks confused. He points at Hilary as he looks at Evander. "Shawn: You know her?" Hilary walks up to Evander. "Evander: Where were you last night at Bruce Lee's party?" "Hilary: I'm not speaking to Bruce. I'll tell you about it later." Shawn's eyes widen and he just shrugs his shoulders. "Hilary: So anyway what are you doing here?" "Evander: I didn't know you lived here. Frankly I saw the lights and I thought they were alittle tacky." Uncle Phil is still talking with the neighbors and things seem to be getting out of hand. "Uncle Phil: Our daughter put them up." Ashley stands up. "Ashley: Look!" Everyone looks at Ashley. "Ashley: I didn't mean for everyone to get so upset. You might as well just take all the lights down." "Uncle Phil: Ashley." "Ashley: Its okay dad." Ashley walks out of the room. Shawn looks at Uncle Phil and he puts his hand up then he turns and he follows Ashley into the hallway. "Shawn: Ashley." Ashley turns to Shawn. "Shawn: Now come on. The house looks cool. Who cares what they think?" Shawn smiles and he taps Ashley on the arm. "Shawn: Bet ya Santa thinks its nice." "Ashley: Look. I know your trying to get me into the Christmas spirit but I'm just not into it. All those people are in a bad mood. None of my friends are around to play with. I'm going to go up to my room and learn some new words and wait until New Years." Ashley turns around and she walks upstairs. Suddenly the doorbell rings. Shawn walks up to the door and he opens it and its a guy with a group of kids. "Kids: Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. O what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh." Shawn claps his hands. Ashley comes back downstairs and she stands beside Shawn. "Shawn: Wow. Alright. That was great. Who are you guys?" "Mark: Hi I'm Mark Driscoll." Mark extends his hand. Shawn shakes hands. "Mark: Every year I take the neighborhood kids around to look at the Christmas lights. They like to choose one house as the best decorated and then sing Christmas carols to the people who live there." "Boy: And this year you guys won." "Girl: We drove all over." "Boy: Yeah and usually this neighborhood is a complete dud." Shawn laughs. "Boy: We weren't even going to come here until Jimmy saw the house from the freeway." Shawn smacks his hands together. "Shawn: Hey. I tell you what. We've got alot of cookies and hot chocolate inside. You guys come on in." They walk in. "Mark: Thanks. Merry Christmas." "Shawn: Merry Christmas." Shawn closes the door and he looks at Ashley. "Shawn: Well. Ashley. I seem to remember you wanted some friends and there they are...Still don't believe there's a Santa Claus?" Ashley looks at Shawn. Back in the living room things seem to have settled down. "Guy: Well. I'm glad we cleared up this little matter. I assume the lights will be down by tomorrow?" Shawn and Ashley walk back into the living room. Shawn stands behind Ashley. "Ashley: Wait. I've changed my mind. I want the lights to stay up." Shawn raises his arm. "Shawn: Fight the power Ashley." Ashley looks around the room. "Ashley: I love them. Their beautiful. And I'm not the only one who thinks so. Shawn thinks so too." Shawn gives a thumbs up. "Ashley: And so do all these kids. And besides its Christmas. And when I look at the lights, the reindeer and the decorations it makes me feel very...Ebullient." Shawn looks confused then he raises his arm. "Shawn: Yeah. Me too." Shawn looks at Ashley then he shrugs. "Uncle Phil: Ashley's right. What are we arguing about here? When we were kids. We used to all love Christmas. And now we take things too seriously. Personally I think the lights are kind of neat." "Lady: Oh. I guess their really not hurting anybody." "Mr. Uesato: And the kids really like them." "Evander: We shouldn't be fighting. Its so barbaric." Aunt Viv looks around at everyone. "Aunt Viv: Then we're all agreed?" "Guy: I think those decorations are totally inappropriate for a home in Huntington but I guess it isn't hurting anything." Shawn smiles. "Shawn: So its all agreed?" "Guy: Sure." "Shawn: Alright." Shawn shakes hands with the guy. Shawn walks over to Evander. "Shawn: Hey. No hard feelings Evander?" Evander smiles. "Evander: No hard feelings." Evander and Shawn smack hands. "Shawn: Merry Christmas." "Evander: Merry Christmas." Shawn looks around at everyone. "Shawn: Hey. What do you all say we sing one of my mom's favorite Christmas songs?" Everyone agrees. "Shawn: Hark the herald angels sing." The others join in. "Everyone: Glory to the new-born King. Peace on earth and mercy mild. God and sinners reconciled. Joyful, all ye nations, rise. Join the triumph of the skies. With the angelic host proclaim. Christ is born in Bethlehem. Hark. the herald angels sing. Glory to the new-born King." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/10/2007 11:00p.m. Location: The Woods The scene shows a view of the woods. The moon is high in the sky. Snow clouds are starting to roll in. (Scene shifts) A nice camp fire is burning. The scene pans out and Victoria is sitting close to the fire. She's wearing the same clothes she was when she left and she has her blanket over her legs. Carson lays beside her. Victoria pets him as she just stares blankly at the ground. She then looks at Carson and she smiles. "Victoria: How you doing buddy?" Carson gets up and he starts licking Victoria's face. Victoria tries to hold him back. "Victoria: Alright. Alright. I love you too buddy." Carson stops and he sits down next to her. Victoria continues to pet him. "Victoria: -Sigh- You know. Today was my birthday. And I've never really been into the whole birthday thing but I was kinda looking forward to spending my first birthday with my family...But things happen. Just gotta keep moving forward...I can't go back. There's nothing there for me...I can't fight this war anymore. I mean. What am I fighting for? My mom is dead. They killed her. I guess this whole time I wasn't really fighting for my freedom at all...I was really fighting for hers. And you know. I joureyed around for years thinking I belonged with my family but I feel at home out here." Victoria smiles as she looks at Carson. "Victoria: Just you and me buddy." Victoria stops petting him and she looks up into the sky. "Victoria: I have often dreamed. Of a far off place. Where a great warm welcome will be waiting for me. And the crowds will cheer. When they see my face. A voice keeps saying. This is where I'm ment to be. I will find my way. I can go the distance. I'll be there someday. If I can be strong. I know every mile. Will be worth my while. I would go most anywhere to find where I belong." Victoria notices movement out of the corner of her eye. She quickly turns and looks and she sees a copperhead snake has invaded her camp site. Victoria's eyes widen and she gets up. "Victoria: Carson. Get behind me." Carson moves around behind Victoria. Victoria picks up a stick and she lights it on the fire. She waves the stick at the snake. The snake snaps at her. "Victoria: Go on. Get out of here snake." Victoria waves the stick at it. She takes a few steps to the left. The snake curls up and it shows its fangs. Victoria waves the stick at it. "Victoria: Get out of here." The snake quickly leaps at her and it bites Victoria's arm and it sinks its fangs in really deep and it injects the venom. "Victoria: Ahh. Ah." The snake lets go and it drops to the ground. The snake tries to crawl away. Victoria stomps her foot down on the snake slightly behind its head. She then raises the stick up and she slams the fiery end down on the snake's head killing it. Victoria steps off the snake and she kicks it. The lifeless body flies 10 feet and it slams into a tree. Victoria tosses the stick over into the fire. She then looks at the bite. She sits down and she proceeds to suck the poison out of her arm. She gets most of the poison out and she takes an old shirt from her bag and she rips it and she tightly ties it around her arm where the bite is. Carson walks over to Victoria and he looks at the ripped shirt. Victoria pets him. "Victoria: I'll be alright buddy." She grabs the blanket and she lays down on the ground and she covers up. Carson lays down beside her. "Victoria: Good night buddy." Victoria drifts off to sleep. The scene pans out. (Midnight Rider by The Allman Brothers Band) Part 33: Victoria's Return? 12/15/2007 5:30p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Taker and Snake are outside training. Angie sits on the sofa and she holds Annaliese on her lap. Angie watches the evening news. "Guy: There are still no answers to the mysterious explosion that rocked Huntington on December 5th. 4 buildings were destroyed. The good news is 3 of them were only empty office buildings but sadly 1 was an apartment building and it was announced this afternoon that 100 people were killed. Local residents are concerned rather or not the explosion was planned or just an accident. Moving on to the world of sports. The Marshall football team has finished another winless season. Herd fans all over are asking if perhaps the glory days are over. Marshall football has not seen a winning season since Byron Leftwich's last year and that was way back in 2002. The bowl picture is set and Ohio State and LSU will be facing off for the National Title. Its the game everyone wants to see. Its been a long rough season for these 2 teams and it all comes down to this. The game will be broadcast live by ESPN. Ohio State is favored to win." Trish walks into the room. She's dressed in a black shirt, blue jeans and white sneakers. "Trish: Hey. I'm gonna go out for alittle bit." "Angie: Okay. Be careful." Trish puts her jacket on and she opens the front door and she walks out just as Taker and Snake are coming in. Snake closes the door. "Angie: Hey. How'd the training go?" "Undertaker: Fine. Just fine." Snake flops in Taker's chair. "Undertaker: Angie. I'm gonna go out and spend the night in the forest. I'm gonna see if I can focus my energy and perhaps figure out what Dante's necklace truly is." "Snake: I'm not trying to question you Taker but are you sure its not just a normal necklace?" Taker looks at Snake. "Undertaker: I cannot say but I will know by morning." Taker turns around and he walks out the front door. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 9:00p.m. Location: The Underworld Dante wakes up. "Dante: Oh." Dante holds his head. "Dante: Ohh. Man. Did Albert McClellan just hit me?" Dante sniffs the air. "Dante: Smells funny in here." Christy sits in the shadows of the dimly lit chamber. "Christy: Well. Look who finally woke up." Dante turns to the shadow figure and he points his sword. "Dante: What? Who's there? What's going on?" Christy stands up. She steps out of the shadows. Her long red hair glows a mystic color in the mysterious light. "Dante: Your a girl?" "Christy: Um. Yeah. Last time I checked I was a girl." "Dante: Where am I?" "Christy: Your in the Underworld kid." "Dante: The...The Underworld? Explains the wailing and brimstone smell...Wait a second! Did I die?!" "Christy: Relax. Your very much alive." "Dante: What do you mean? Just who are you? You work for Hades don't you?" "Christy: Yeah. In a way I do but...I don't want to." "Dante: Then why don't you rebell against him?" "Christy: I have. And I've paid the price for it." "Dante: What's your name?" "Christy: ...My name is Christy." "Dante: Christy...Your their mother...Taker and them? Da*n so that's where Trish gets her looks." Christy smirks. Dante rests his sword on his back. "Dante: So...I'm in the Underworld but...I'm alive?" "Christy: Yes. Lust brought you here. Your lucky to be alive. Seems you took a nasty beating." "Dante: Lust brought me here? And yeah I took one he** of a beating but I survived...but Wrath...Not so much. I shouldn't be standing right now actually." Dante feels his neck and his eyes widen. "Dante: Oh no. My mother's amulet. Its gone! Not good. Not good at all." "Christy: This amulet you speak of. What is it?" "Dante: Its the key that servers the barriers between the human world and the demon world. If it falls into the wrong hands. I shudder to think. I'm not gonna stand here and let that happen." "Christy: I overheard Hades talking after your fight with Wrath. He doesn't have the amulet. Undertaker does." "Dante: Its only a matter of time before Hades tries to steal it. I have to get out of this cell." "Christy: That's eaiser said than done. I've been here for weeks but I'm sure we can figure something out. By the way. Hades said there's someone here who wants to meet you. I don't know what he means though." Dante's eyes narrow. "Dante: ...I know...My father Sparda...wants to settle things. He's not actually my father...not by traditional means anyway...The monster raped the woman that would become my mother but she never quite got over it...Always lived in fear. Experiencing that...and trying to raise a child that ain't quite normal...I've wanted to kill my father for so many years. Now's my chance...I'll erase him from existance by throwing his screaming soul into the lake of fire...and perhaps pay Hades a visit. Gee I just hope Trish is ready to face Lust." "Christy: So do I. He'll be attacking soon enough." "Dante: My friend Snake trained her but still I worry...Man. I've had a bad feeling about this crap since it started. Somehow I don't think it ends if Trish beats Lust...There's more to this...I know it." "Christy: I know. There is gonna be more...but what will happen after Lust's defeat...I don't know." "Dante: That's why I gotta get the heck outta here." "Christy: We'll get you out of here somehow. We need to wait for the right time. Perhaps you can escape when Lust attacks." "Dante: Okay. I'll settle things with Sparda while Trish and Lust are fighting...Hm. Wonder where the exit is." "Christy: All you have to do is follow the main corridor just outside the chamber. Make sure to sneak around Cerberus." "Dante: Sneaking...I think I can do that." "Christy: Good. We don't want Cerberus disturbed. It will be hard enough for you to make it that far." "Dante: Yeah...I wonder how Taker and them are doing?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 10:00p.m. Location: Night Club in Huntington The scene shows a night club. (Scene shifts) The scene pans around the club. People are talking and laughing. AC/DC's hit song Highway To Hell is playing over the p.a system. The scene pans over to a pool table and Trish is shooting pool with a guy. The guy is dressed in blue jeans. A black AC/DC shirt and a black leather bandana. "Guy: Here. You can break." Trish sets up to take the shot. The guy stands back and he checks out her butt. Trish takes the shot and its a nice break and she actually sinks the 3 ball in the corner pocket. "Guy: Nice." Trish sets up to take her next shot. "Guy: So what's your name sweetie?" Trish looks at him. "Trish: Trish." "Guy: Ah. That's nice. My names Jeff." Trish takes her next shot but doesn't sink anything. "Jeff: You from around here?" "Trish: Yeah. I live just out of town." "Jeff: Ah okay. That's cool." Jeff takes his shot and he sinks the 13 ball. "Jeff: You know I was thinking you could hang around with me and my buds. If you want to." "Trish: Oh. I don't know. I'm really just out trying to have some fun tonight. Just been dealing with some problems and stuff." Jeff takes his next shot but doesn't sink anything. Jeff smiles. "Jeff: You know I could help you." "Trish: Really? How?" Jeff turns to Trish. "Jeff: Come back to my place and I'll give you a night you'll never forget." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 10:15p.m. Location: The woods Victoria sits by the lake. Carson sits next to her. Victoria removes the torn shirt from her arm where the snake bite is. Victoria lowers her arms into the water and she proceeds to clean the bite area. Some more poison comes out of her arm. Victoria cleans the bite really well. She takes her arm from the water and she uses a clean shirt to dry her arm. She then tears it and she ties it around the bite. "Victoria: Ah. Much better." Victoria stands up and she picks up her gym bag and she carries it on her shoulder and she turns around and she freezes as she spots a mysterious white wolf standing there staring at her. Carson hides behind Victoria. The wolf is about 10 feet away. It just stands there and it stares at Victoria. The wolf turns around and it starts to walk into the woods. It takes a few steps and it stops and it looks back at Victoria. "Victoria: -Whispers- Hm. I think it wants me to follow it." Victoria looks at Carson. "Victoria: Come on buddy." Victoria slowly walks toward the white wolf. The wolf turns around and it walks on. The wolf picks up its pace and so does Victoria. The wolf now begins running. Victoria follows close behind. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 10:20p.m. Location: Night Club in Huntington The scene pans around the night club. AC/DC's Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap is now playing on the p.a system. Trish smiles. "Trish: And so what did you have in mind?" "Jeff: We could go back to my place and you could slip out of those nice clothes and we could have a really nice time." Trish remembers what Victoria told her. "Trish: No. No. I've been down that road and I don't want to go back." "Jeff: Oh come on sweetie. No one's gonna know. I promise you it will be better than before." "Trish: No." Trish walks toward the exit. Jeff looks at his friends standing close by. "Jeff: Go get her boys. That's the best body I've ever seen. I'm getting some of that." Jeff lights a cigarette. Trish walks outside. The 3 guys follow her out. The streets are empty. The 3 guys grab Trish and they drag her around behind the building. Jeff is standing there with the cigarette in his mouth. The 3 guys hold Trish. Jeff looks at her. "Jeff: You sholudn't have turned me down sweetie...Let her go." The 3 guys turn loose of Trish. Jeff walks up to her. "Jeff: You see. My gang runs this town. We always get what we want and you know what we want from you. Your gonna come back to our place and your gonna have sex with all of us. Tonight you got me. Tomorrow night its my buddy John. Then the next night you got Ronnie then the next night Sean. Understand?" Jeff smacks Trish on the butt. John, Ronnie and Sean laugh. "Jeff: And if you refuse to go with us. Well. As the old saying goes. If we can't have you...No one can." Jeff pulls a gun from his pocket and he holds it up. Trish' eyes widen as she stares at it. She then looks toward the ground and she closes her eyes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 10:30p.m. Location: Huntington, West Virginia Victoria follows the mysterious white wolf into the streets of Huntington. The wolf turns and it runs down an ally. Victoria turns into the ally and the white wolf has mysteriously vanished. Victoria takes a close look around as she walks down the ally. She then spots Jeff and his gang. She leans up against a building and she leans around the corner. "Jeff: So...what's it gonna be? You gonna be a good girl?" Trish raises her head and she looks at Jeff and she nods. "Trish: Yes." "Victoria: -Whispers- That's Trish." Jeff smiles. "Jeff: Good. Let's go." Victoria looks at Carson. "Victoria: -Whispers- Carson. Stay here. You got that? Don't move!" Victoria turns and she looks at Jeff and his gang with Saiyan's rage in her eyes. She then walks around the corner of the building and she approches Jeff. "Victoria: Stop!" Jeff and his gang turn their attention to Victoria. "Jeff: Well well. What have we here?" "Victoria: Let her go." "Jeff: Oh we'll let her go...Soon enough." Jeff and his gang laugh. Victoria walks toward Jeff. "Jeff: Boys. Show her who runs these streets." Jeff throws his cigarette down. John charges Victoria. Victoria lowers her head and she throws John 16 feet in the air and she connects a back body drop. John lands hard on his back nearly shattering his spine. Victoria continues to walk toward Jeff. Sean has a baseball bat. He charges Victoria and he takes a full swing at her head. Victoria ducks under it and she grabs the bat and she bangs him in the head with it then she yanks it out of his hands and she connects with a full swing to his gut. Sean flies 20 feet into the side of a building. Victoria drops the bat and she continues to walk toward Jeff. Ronnie charges Victoria and he throws a punch. Victoria dodges it and she grabs his arm and she snaps it like a twig. Ronnie screams. Victoria turns him loose and she continues to walk toward Jeff. Ronnie runs away. Victoria walks up to Jeff and he pulls his gun out and he points it at Victoria. Victoria stops and she looks at the gun then she looks at Jeff. Jeff smirks. "Jeff: Looks like I'm getting a twosome tonight. Come with me." "Victoria: We're not going anywhere." "Jeff: Oh but we are...Otherwise I'm gonna put a bullet through your skull." Jeff holds on tightly to Trish' arm. Trish looks on in fear as Victoria stares down the barrle of the gun. (Outro to Rocking All The Way by AC/DC) (Slow motion) Victoria kicks the gun out of his hand. The gun flies up and it comes down and Victoria catches it and she fires it and she puts the bullet right between Jeff's eyes. Jeff falls back. (End slow motion) Trish looks at him then she looks at Victoria. Victoria smirks. (Rocking All The Way fades) "Victoria: Justice...Is served." "Trish: Wow. Victoria. That was great! You were so brave." Victoria lays the gun on Jeff's chest then she looks at Trish. "Victoria: Let's go. The cops will be here soon." Victoria and Trish run out the way Victoria came in. "Victoria: Come on Carson. Let's go." Carson follows Trish and Victoria. The scene pans up and the white wolf stands ontop of the building and it watches Victoria and Trish. The moon is high in the sky behind the wolf. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 11:00p.m. Location: Undertaker's house Angie has just recently washed some clothes as she's folding them to put them away. Annaliese lays sleeping in the next room. All's quiet when suddenly a voice calls out. "Hades: Well now that's just lovely." Angie turns and she looks at Hades. "Angie: Who are you? What are you doing in my house?" "Hades: Look babe. I promise you I didn't come to cause any trouble. I'm here for one reason and one reason only." "Angie: ...And what is that?" Hades smirks as he looks over at the desk that the amulet sets on. "Hades: You see Angie. Things are getting alittle rough for me. Early on this war was playing in my favor but now...Now its not. So I'm doing everything I can to turn the tides of the battle back into my favor." Hades walks over to the desk. Angie watches him. Hades takes the amulet and he turns back to Angie. Hades smirks as he looks at her then he punches her in the stomach. A look of intense pain comes to her face as she holds her gut and she falls to the floor. Hades laughs and he looks over into the next room. Hades walks into the room where Annaliese sleeps. Hades stands above the bed and he looks down at the sleeping child. He smirks as he looks at her. The scene pans in on a close up of his face. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/15/2007 11:30p.m. Location: The woods Victoria and Trish are walking through the woods. Trish has her hands in her pockets. Carson sticks close to them. "Victoria: So tell me. How'd you get into that mess?" "Trish: I don't know actually. He just clear out of the blue asked me to have sex with him and just for the record I turned him down but the scary thing is I really wanted to go do it again but I remembered what you said to me and I walked away but his thugs took me around back and next thing I know there's a gun in my face. I wish I was a brave as you." Victoria looks at the ground for a moment then she looks at Trish. "Victoria: You did the right thing Trish. I'm happy that you didn't want to give it. The jackass just tried to pressure you into going with him. Your lucky I showed up when I did." "Trish: Yeah...How did you find me anyway?" "Victoria: Its gonna sound crazy but I followed a white wolf. It lead me stright to you. I really had no idea you was in trouble." "Trish: A white wolf? I never saw anything." "Victoria: Never mind. Like I said. Sounds crazy but I'm serious." They keep walking deeper into the woods heading towards Taker's house. "Trish: I wish I was more like you Victoria. I mean. I had so much trouble turning him down. I wanted to do it so bad." Victoria looks over at Trish. "Victoria: You really have alot of trouble controling you emotions don't you?" "Trish: More than you know." "Victoria: Look. Trish. If its that rough on you then try masturbation." "Trish: Masturbation? What's that?" "Victoria: Too hard for me to explain. If you want to know. Ask Angie." Trish and Victoria keep walking. Trish lets out a sigh. "Trish: I honestly don't think I can beat Lust. I wish I didn't have to fight." Victoria looks forward as they continue walking. They make it to Taker's house. They stop and look at each other. "Victoria: Look. Trish. If I could fight Lust for you...I would...but I can't. You have to do this. The future of our family rests in the palm of your hands. Keep that in mind and continue training hard. I know you can win." Trish smiles. Trish and Victoria embrace each other. "Trish: Thank you so much...That means so much to me." "Victoria: Your welcome." "Trish: I miss you so much Victoria." Trish takes a few steps back. "Trish: Wow. Just wait until Angie and Taker find out what happened tonight." Victoria's smile fades. "Victoria: No. Trish. You can't tell them I was here." Trish looks confused. "Trish: Why?" "Victoria: You wouldn't understand. Now you better get inside. Its getting late. Angie will be worried." "Trish: Alright...Victoria...Do you think we'll see each other again?" Victoria nods. "Victoria: Yeah. I'm sure our paths will cross again...Someday...See ya around." Victoria turns to walk into the woods. Carson follows her. "Trish: Victoria." Victoria stops. "Trish: I love you." Victoria looks over her shoulder at Trish. "Victoria: I love you too." Trish smiles and waves. Victoria turns around and she walks on. Trish steps up on the porch and she opens the front door and she steps inside. "Trish: Angie? Angie? Where are you?" The tv is on SpongeBob. Trish walks down the hallway and she walks into the back room and she looks down at Angie who's still down on the floor. Trish' eyes widen. "Trish: Angie!" Trish runs back through the living room and she runs out on the porch. "Trish: Victoria!" Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Shhhh. Angie will here you." "Trish: Victoria. Its Angie. She's hurt!" "Victoria: -Whispers- What?" Victoria runs down the walkway and she leaps up on the porch and she runs into the house. She charges down the hallway and into the back room and she looks down at Angie. Angie lays on the floor holding her stomach with both hands and an intense look of pain on her face. Victoria gets down on one knee. "Victoria: Angie? Angie? Are you alright? What happened?" Angie opens her eyes and she looks at Victoria. "Angie: Vi...Victoria?" Angie smiles. "Angie: You came back." "Victoria: I heard you was hurt. I couldn't leave you hanging." Victoria takes Angie's hand and she helps her up. Angie sits on the edge of the bed. She holds her stomach with one hand. "Victoria: What happened?" "Angie: Hades came." "Victoria: Hades?" Victoria and Trish look at each other then back at Angie. "Angie: I'm not sure why he came but before he left...He attacked me." "Victoria: How did he attack you?" "Angie: He...punched me." Victoria then notices the crying Annaliese. Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Trish. Tend to Angie. See how hurt she is." Victoria walks into the next room. "Victoria: If he did anything to Annaliese I swear to God..." Victoria freezes and she looks on in fear. The room has been recked. Annaliese lays on the floor. Victoria rushes to her side. She seems to be alright. Victoria drops to her knees beside Annaliese and she picks her up and she comforts her. "Victoria: Shhh. Shhh. Its alright. Auntie Victoria's here. Shhh. Its alright. Auntie Victoria's here." Annaliese stops crying. Victoria looks at her then she lowers her head and a tear rolls down her cheek. "Victoria: -Whispers- It should have been me." The scene slowly pans out. Part 34: The Walking Kiss of Death 12/16/2007 12:30a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Angie sits on the sofa. Trish stands close by. "Trish: How you feeling Angie?" "Angie: I'm starting to feel better." Victoria walks into the living room. Angie looks at Victoria. "Angie: Victoria. Is Annaliese okay?" Victoria looks at Angie. "Victoria: Yeah. She was just scared." "Angie: Okay." "Trish: That's good to know." "Angie: Victoria sweetie. I understand how you feel about your mother's death but listen...If we're gonna win this war we need you. Your a very tough girl Victoria. Trish told me what happened tonight and I'm really proud of you. I know you love us Victoria. Otherwise you wouldn't have came back. You wouldn't have saved Trish. I know you can't fight for your mother's freedom but you can still fight in her honor. I never knew her but I know she wouldn't want you to run from your problems. She wouldn't want you to run from the battle." Victoria stares at the floor then she looks at Angie. "Victoria: I've never ran from anything in my life." Everything goes quiet for a momemt as Victoria appears to be thinking. "Trish: Victoria...Are you staying?" Victoria looks at Trish then she looks at Angie. "Victoria: Hades is in trouble. Cause I'm back....Back for the attack." (Chorus of Back For The Attack by Dokken) Victoria takes her shoes and socks off and she looks at Angie. "Victoria: I'm gonna wash up." Victoria then looks at Trish. "Victoria: Trish. We're gonna go out and train tomorrow. Your gonna be ready for Lust. I'll make sure of it." Victoria walks by Trish and into the bathroom. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/16/2007 1:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Victoria comes out of the bathroom. She's got on a clean shirt and clean pants. She looks at the snake bite on her arm. "Victoria: Ah shoot." Victoria turns around and she walks back into the bathroom and she stands in front of the sink and she proceeds to clean the bite. Trish walks by the bathroom and she sees Victoria's arm. "Trish: Oh my God. Victoria. What happened?" Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Its just a snake bite. Nothing to worry about." "Trish: Yeah? What'd you get bit by? An anaconda? That things nasty." "Victoria: If you must know it was a copperhead." The front door opens and Undertaker walks in. Trish looks at Taker. "Trish: Hi Taker." Taker nods as he looks over at Trish. "Undertaker: Where's Angie?" "Trish: Back here." Trish points into the back room. Taker walks down the hall and into the back room. Angie is laying back on the bed still in alittle bit of pain. "Undertaker: Angie." Angie looks at Taker. "Undertaker: Dante's necklace is by no means normal at all. It holds a great power." Taker looks over at the desk the amulet sat on. "Undertaker: Where's the necklace?" Angie's eyes widen. She sets up and she looks at Taker. "Angie: Oh no. That must be why Hades came." "Undertaker: Hades? Hades was here?" "Angie: Yes...And he must have come for the necklace. I'm so sorry." Taker lets out a sigh. "Undertaker: It may not be a big loss. I'm still not sure of the power it holds but Hades knows and no doubt he's gonna use it against us. We've got to get it back somehow." Angie lays back on the bed. Taker walks into the bathroom. Trish and Victoria are sitting on the sofa. Victoria has a clean towle wrapped around the bite on her arm. "Trish: Victoria. I just wanted to say thanks again for saving my butt." Victoria smiles. "Victoria: Hey. Anything for my baby sister." "Trish: Victoria. Even though we're stuck in the middle of this war. Its gonna be great spending Christmas with you." Victoria looks over at the tree. "Victoria: Ah. Well. Ditto." "Trish: Victoria...If you could have your Christmas wish come true. What would you wish for?" "Victoria: My Christmas wish can't come true. If I could make one wish. Just one wish and it come true. I'd wish for my mother to be alive and hope that perhaps those demon's lied to us." "Trish: You know I hear some pretty impossible things happen at Christmas." "Victoria: Yeah. Well. I wouldn't believe half of it." "Trish: Still. How great would that be if those demon's did lie and our mother is still alive?" "Victoria: Hm. Sure would give us more motivation to fight. Hm?" "Trish: Yeah." "Victoria: For once in my life...I'd like to have a real family...We've got part of it but it feels so incomplete without mom." "Trish: Yeah." Victoria looks over at Trish. "Victoria: Well. We better get some rest. We're gonna be training hard tomorrow." "Trish: Alright...And Victoria...Thanks." Trish gets up and she walks into the back room. Victoria turns the tv off and she lays down on the sofa and she covers herself up with her blanket. The scene begins to pan out. (Scene shifts) The scene shows a view of the night sky above the house. A shooting star is seen. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/16/2007 9:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Victoria wakes up. Angie is already awake. Victoria raises up and she puts her feet on the floor. Victoria yawns as she takes the blanket off her legs and she gets up. She gets clean clothes and she walks into the bathroom. She changes her clothes then she leaves the bathroom. Victoria's wearing her black leather jacket and blue jeans. Victoria walks into the back room. Victoria walks up to Trish and she taps her. "Victoria: -Whispers- Trish...Trish. Get up. Its time to start training." Trish opens her eyes and she looks at Victoria. "Trish: -Yawns- Oh. Alright." Trish gets up. "Victoria: -Whispers- Change your clothes and meet me outside." Victoria walks into the living room and she sits down on the sofa and she puts her black sneakers on. Victoria gets up and she walks over to the front door. Carson walks over to the door. Victoria looks at him. "Victoria: You need to go out?" Victoria opens the door. "Victoria: Go on. Go do your business." Carson runs outside. Victoria steps out on the porch and she closes the door behind her. She takes in the fresh morning air. The temp stands at 30F, Victoria takes a look around. "Victoria: Hm. Something doesn't feel right." Victoria takes a look around the side of the house. All seems well. Carson barks and Victoria turns around and she looks at him. Carson chases a deer. "Victoria: Carson. Leave that deer alone." Carson stops and he looks at Victoria. The deer runs on. Victoria points at the ground. "Victoria: Come here." Carson walks over to Victoria. Victoria steps up on the porch and she opens the door. "Victoria: Go on. Get inside." Carson walks inside just as Trish is coming out. Victoria looks at her. "Victoria: Hey. Took ya long enough." Trish closes the door. "Trish: Geez. Its ccccoold out here. Are you sure you want to train? I mean won't your arm bother you?" "Victoria: Trish. Its gonna take alot more than a little ol snake bite to slow me down. Besides. We need to make sure your ready for Lust." Victoria and Trish step off the porch. "Victoria: Alright. Stay there." Trish stops and Victoria walks another 15 feet and she stops and she turns to Trish. "Victoria: Alright. Snake taught you the basics. Let's see you put what you've learned into action." "Trish: Alright. I'll try not to hit too hard." "Victoria: No Trish. I want you to come at me full force. Hold nothing back. When your in the heat of the battle against Lust. He's not gonna hold anything back. He's gonna come at you full force. You've never been in a heated battle so your gonna have to learn how to react and behave. You have to be mature when your out there. You have to think ahead and plan your actions and above all. You have to be mistake free. You make the slightest mistake then even if your dominating the fight. Your opponent can easily turn the tides of the battle. Now. Let's see you connect a punch. Don't be afraid to hit me. Clock me as hard as you can." Victoria stands her ground. "Trish: Alright." Trish charges Victoria and she throws a punch at her jaw. Victoria dodges it and Trish throws herself to the ground. She gets up to her knees and Victoria connects a hard kick to the back of the head. Trish is slammed face first into the ground. Trish gets up to her hands and knees and she shakes her head then she gets up to her feet and she stumbles. "Trish: Ow. What happened?" Trish turns to Victoria. Victoria smirks. "Victoria: you made a mistake. Although not impossible charging someone head on is one of the hardest attacks to hit. Regaredless of what attack your looking to hit. The eaisest attack to nail is when you blindside someone. All it takes is one counter and a powerful attack to turn the tides of the battle. Now. Let's see you dodge my attack and counter it into one of your own." Victoria walks 15 feet away from Trish and she stops and she turns to her. "Victoria: Ready?" Trish nods. "Trish: Yep." Victoria just stands there for a second then she charges Trish. Victoria throws a punch. Trish dodges it and she throws a kick to the back of Victoria's knee. Victoria stops and she kicks her leg back and she kicks Trish in the ankle. Trish spins around and she lands on her back. Trish looks on in shock. "Trish: Wow...That was impressive. You countered my counter." Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Yes. It can be very hard to do but its not impossible. Learning to counter attacks is the first step to victory. The more attacks you take the quicker your opponent will wear you down." Victoria extends her hand out. Trish takes her hand and Victoria helps her up. "Victoria: When you go into battle. You gotta stay on your toes. Expect anything and everything." Angie opens the front door and she looks at Trish and Victoria. "Angie: Hey. You girls hungry?" "Trish: Yeah." "Victoria: Go ahead. Get yourself something to eat. We'll come back out later." Victoria playfully smacks Trish on the butt. "Trish: Alright. Thank you so much. I'm so hungry." Trish walks inside. Victoria steps up on the porch and she walks up to Angie. "Victoria: -Whispers- Angie. Can we step into the back room for a moment please? I need to talk to you about Trish." "Angie: -Whispers- Alright. I'll be back there in a minute." Victoria nods and she walks through the living room and down the hall and into the back room. Angie turns around and Taker comes out of the bathroom. Angie walks up to him. "Angie: -Whispers- Keep Trish busy." Taker nods and he walks into the kitchen. Angie walks into the back room. "Victoria: I don't know about this Angie. Trish is just too nice to be a fighter. She's gonna get killed." "Angie: Don't say that Victoria. You just need to keep working with her. After all she's never been in a real fight before." "Victoria: That's true but Angie. Lust is gonna show no mercy. She's gonna have to get angry if she wants to win." "Angie: But we can't give up. You have to keep working with her. Maybe you can whip her into shape." "Victoria: I can only hope. Its not looking too good though. Lust could attack at anytime." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/16/2007 10:00p.m. Location: The Underworld Dante paces around the chamber. He walks up to the door and he kicks it. The sound echos. "Dante: Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow! My toe. My toe." "Christy: Ouch." "Dante: Dang it. I guess it won't be that easy. He can't keep me here forever. I'm going crazy!" "Christy: I know. Try to stay focused. Remember you have to face your father before you escape." "Dante: Oh yeah...heh heh heh." "Christy: I know you can handle him. After all you put Wrath to rest. One of the strongest sins. I'm really worried about Trish though." "Dante: Trish will be fine. I may not know anything for sure but I just have the feeling she'll be okay. Maybe Victoria will take her under her wing." "Christy: I take it Victoria is a skilled fighter?" "Dante: You have no idea...She completely destroyed her sin. No contest." "Christy: Wow." Suddenly a noise is heard outside the chamber. "Christy: Someone's coming." "Dante: Hm?" The chamber door opens and Hades walks in. He stares straight at Christy. "Christy: Well well. Hades. What are you here for?" "Hades: I've been thinking Christy. Perhaps it was a bit harsh what I did to you when you refused to help me kill Trish." "Christy: Uh. Yeah. I don't think so." "Dante: Grrr." "Hades: Listen Christy. I know you want your freedom and at the same time I know you'd like to see your kids. So. Why don't you go spend some time with them?" Saiyan's rage appears in Christy's eyes as she stares at Hades. "Christy: What trick are you up to this time?" "Hades: Oh no tricks. I've got bigger things to deal with at the moment than to even worry about Trish." "Dante: (Yeah right...its a trick)" "Hades: But the choice is yours Christy. If you don't want to go you don't have too." Hades turns around and he leaves the chamber. Dante looks at Christy. "Dante: I don't buy it for one second." "Christy: Your right. He's up to something. But what could it be?" "Dante: I dunno. His goal is killing Trish. That much I do know." "Christy: Hm. I don't think Hades has the balls to try to attack with me there. There's something not adding up here." "Dante: Your right. He's too cowardly to try that. He'll use someone else to do his dirty deeds. But who will be the puppet?" "Christy: Good question." "Dante: Knowing Hades. It won't be some random person. It will be someone close to Trish." "Christy: Hm. Dante. I'm going. To my understanding. They think I'm dead. It will really motivate them if they know I'm still alive. I'll just have to be extremely careful." "Dante: ....I don't like it...But I can't stop you. So go...Don't tell them I'm alive." Dante smirks. "Dante: When I burst outta here. I want to make a good entrance. So that's why I don't want them to know I'm alive." "Christy: Alright. I won't. You may have to fight while I'm gone. I'll get back as soon as I can." "Dante: I can handle anything ol Flameyhead throws my way. You have yourself a ball." Christy nods and she leaves the chamber. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/17/2007 12:00a.m. Location: The woods Trish and Victoria are walking through the woods. "Victoria: Hey Trish. You did alright today. We still got alot of work to do though." "Trish: Thanks Victoria. I just hope I'm ready to face Lust when the time comes." "Victoria: May be sooner than you think. I got a feeling something is in the works." Victoria and Trish keep walking. They come to an opening. "Victoria: Aw crap!" "Trish: What?" "Victoria: I dropped something. Hold on a second. Stay here." Victoria walks back through the woods. A few minutes pass. A branch snaps. Trish looks toward where it came from. "Trish: Victoria?" Christy walks out into the opening. Trish looks on in shock. "Trish: Oh my God! This can't be!" Christy smiles. "Christy: Yes Trish. Its me." "Trish: But...But your supposed to be dead. I don't understand. Are you a ghost?" Christy smiles and she shakes her head. "Christy: No. I'm very much alive sweetie." Trish' face lights up. "Trish: So that means...They lied!" Trish runs to Christy and they embrace each other. "Trish: I can't believe this. We thought you was dead. Victoria's been taking it really hard." "Christy: Where is Victoria?" "Trish: Oh. She dropped something. She's looking for it." Trish leans back and she looks at Christy. "Trish: Victoria's gonna so be happy to see you." "Christy: I know. I can't wait to see her." Christy smiles and she leans in and she kisses Trish on the cheek. Trish' body becomes lifeless and she drops into Christy's arms. Christy catches her. "Christy: Trish?" A laugh is heard from the darkness. Christy turns and looks and Hades steps out of the shadows. "Hades: That was great. Just as I planned. A job well done Christy. And since you did such a great job. I'm gonna give you the thing you want most...You...are free!" Christy stares at Hades. "Christy: What are you talking about?" "Hades: You mean you don't know?" Hades smirks. "Hades: You've killed your daughter and I have her soul right here." Hades holds out a glass stone. Christy's eyes widen. "Hades: And you've ensured my victory." "Christy: What do you mean? How did I kill her? All I did was kiss her." "Hades: Yes. You kissed her...But you kissed her...With the kiss...of death!" (Kiss of Death by Dokken) Christy's eyes widen. She drops Trish and her body falls to the ground. Hades laughs as he holds up the glass stone. Hades disappears into the shadows. Christy becomes very enraged. She looks at Trish. The tears flow freely. Her body shakes with anger and Saiyan's rage is in her eyes. The ground begins shaking. Victoria is close by. "Victoria: Hey Trish. I think we better be getting back..." Suddenly there's a bright flash that lights up the night for miles around. Victoria stands close by and she looks at Christy then she spots Trish' lifeless body laying on the ground. "Victoria: -Whispers- What?!" Christy's hair has changed to a golden color. Christy rushes off into the night. Victoria rushes over to Trish. "Victoria: ...Oh no." Victoria rushes back to the house. She runs up on the porch and she flings open the door and she runs in. Taker is on the sofa and Angie is coming down the hall. Both look at Victoria. "Victoria: ...Trish is dead." Taker and Angie looks on in shock. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/17/2007 12:30a.m. Location: The Underworld Dante: 213,000. Sparda: 220,000. Hades: 300,000. Christy: 5,000,000, Super Saiyan: 10,000,000 Dante sits in the chamber. "Dante: I can't just sit here and do nothing. I've got to try and find my father and destroy him so I can hopefully get out of here." Dante leaves the chamber and he looks around. He senses his father's energy. Dante rushes toward the main chamber of the Underworld. "Dante: Phew. Man it stinks." Dante comes to a stop and he looks around. "Sparda: You get used to it after awhile." Dante turns and he faces his father. "Dante: Grrr." Hades stands in the chamber and he smiles as he looks at Dante. "Hades: So glad you could join our little party Dante. Its gonna be a blast." Dante looks at Hades then he looks back at Sparda. "Sparda: Do you hate me? What have I done that others have not done so many times before? I was simply...givnig into my lust. Besides she was just a woman. She ment nothing to anybody. An outcast because of her Saiyan heritage. Do you mean to tell me you defend these ignorant humans?!" Dante fires a Kamehameha. Sparda is hit and driven back. His eyes widen. "Dante: That's enough!" "Sparda: That power..." "Dante: Grrr. What you have done is unforgivable...You think what you have done is right?! Your insane! Mother rotted away in an insane asylum unable to handle the trauma caused by what you did. Coupled with the fact I wasn't a normal kid. It was because of you Wrath invaded me. I have put Wrath to rest...and now...Your next!" Rage consumes Dante. His power level peaks. "Sparda: I think you still need some therepy kid. Your still whacked out." Christy sneaks into the chamber. She hides behind a rock behind Hades. Christy watches Dante. "Dante: Your wrong...This is a different rage. Saiyan's rage is pure and its power is used to strike down scum like you." "Sparda: (I can't believe his power level) You want a piece of me?...Literally? Well come and get it if you can!" "Dante: I don't just wanna a piece...I want the entire thing!" (2nd verse of For Whom The Bell Tolls by Metallica) Dante charges Sparda and he punches him in the face sending him through 2 walls. Sparda gets up and he fires a Kamehameha at Dante. Dante slashes through the blast splitting it in two and it slams into the wall. "Sparda: What?!" "Dante: -Whistles.- I can do that? Oh baby. That's good stuff." Dante charges Sparda. "Dante: I'll show you the true power of a Saiyan." "Sparda: Huh?" Dante phases and he appears in front of Sparda. Dante hits a hard uppercut to the jaw. Sparda flies up into the air. Dante jumps up. "Dante: Time for a new technique...Omnislash. Go!" Dante slashes Sparda 10X then unleashes Fire Blast. Sparda spirals into the ground. "Dante: Feel the heat!" Dante lands on the ground. "Dante: Woo!" (For Who The Bell Tolls fades) Sparda gets up and he tackles Dante to the ground and he punches him in the face 10X. Sparda picks Dante up and he tosses him headfirst into the wall. He picks him up again and he connects 5 powerful punches to the face and 10 sword slashes to the gut and chest. Sparda then spears Dante. Dante lays on the ground. Dante writhes in agony. Sparda raises his sword up and he drives it deep into Dante's gut then he turns to walk away. "Christy: -Whispers- Oh no." "Sparda: Was it really so easy? Hm. All that talk for nothing." Dante lays on the floor. Suddenly his fingers move. (I Am by Crush 40) "Dante: Sparda!" Dante kicks up. Blood spatters everywhere but Dante appears unphased. Christy smiles. "Christy: -Whispers- Alright. Way to go!" Dante rushes Sparda and he punches him in the face then he kicks him up. Dante jumps and he connects an Ax smash to the neck. Sparda slams into the ground. Dante lifts Sparda up and he connects with 3 backbreakers than he connects an F5 onto a rock. Dante steps back and his body glows blood red. "Dante: Ragh! Death to all who oppose me!" Sparda tries to move but his body is nearly broken. Sparda looks on. Dante charges all of his power and he forms a huge Fire Kamehameha. "Dante: This is the end." "Christy: -Whispers- Come on Dante." "Hades: Get up Sparda! Don't just lay there! Get up!" "Sparda: She was just a stupid broad! Why do you defend her?!" "Dante: Demon Knight Sparda...You will never understand the workings of the heart. Even if I explained it. You are simply incapable of understanding. Time to die. You God forsaken beast!...Ragh!" Dante fires the Fire Kamehameha and Sparda is obliterated completely. Sparda's scream echos throughout the Underworld. (I Am fades) Dante drops to one knee. "Hades: Arrgggh!" Hades walks toward Dante. Dante looks at him. "Dante: Oh boy. Looks like I'm gonna have to fight my way out." Dante looks back at the ground. "Dante: So be it." Christy suddenly appears in front of Hades and she punches him in the gut. Hades holds his gut and he drops to his knees. Dante looks on in shock. Christy looks at Dante. "Christy: Go on Dante! Now's your chance to escape!" Christy turns back to Hades. "Dante: Oh my God...She's...She's...A Super Saiyan!" Christy pounds Hades on the neck. Hades gets up and he throws a clothesline. Christy ducks under it and she grabs him by the neck and she connects a neck breaker. Christy gets up and she looks at Dante. "Christy: Go! Hurry!" Christy turns back to Hades. Dante shakes his head and he gets up and he rushes out of the chamber. Hades gets up and he looks at Christy in shock. "Hades: What is this? I give you your freedom and this is how you repay me?!" Christy stares at Hades. "Christy: What's the point in being free if you can't live in peace? Without Trish to stop Lust you've won the war and you'll achieve world domination soon enough and we are fighting a pointless war. I would rather die than continue to suffer under your hand." "Hades: Then why do you fight Christy?" "Christy: I fight...For a chance. I fight...for Trish' soul. My love for them grows stronger everyday. With each passing day I wish I could be with them. I made so many mistakes. I gave them up when they were babies...In hopes that they wouldn't have to face you. Ron was right. I should have never given up our kids. You drug them into this war anyway." Hades smirks. "Hades: You understand Christy. You don't stand a chance at taking this stone from me. Besides. There's no way the seal can be broken. Trish' soul will br trapped forever. So why do you fight?" "Christy: To beat you into submission...or die trying!" Christy's rage builds and the Underworld begins to shake. Hades looks on. "Hades: (Her power...Its...its huge! How did she get so powerful? I don't understand it. Even her hair has changed color.)" Hades stands his ground and he looks on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/17/2007 1:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Angie and Taker are in the back room. Taker sits on the bed. Angie stands near the entrance. "Angie: I can't believe this...Poor little Trish." Taker lets out a sigh and he looks at her. "Undertaker: I'm sorry Angie." "Angie: Sorry for what?" Taker shakes his head as he looks toward the floor. "Undertaker: We've failed...Hades has won...Its hopeless." "Angie: ...I'm sorry too." A tear rolls down her cheek as she looks over at Annaliese. Angie turns around and she walks into the living room. Victoria is missing and the front door is open. Angie walks over to the door and she steps out on the porch and she closes the door behind her. Victoria stands on the porch and she looks up at the moon. Not a cloud in the sky. Victoria's long black hair blows in the wind. Angie approches Victoria. "Angie: I'm sorry Victoria." Victoria lowers her head and she looks toward the ground. "Victoria: There's no reason to be sorry Angie. Its not your fault...Its mine." Victoria fights back the tears. "Victoria: I shouldn't have left her alone. Its my fault she's dead." Angie walks over to Victoria. It all goes quiet. Victoria now composed turns and looks at Angie. "Victoria: You know. It feels like it was just yesterday that I met Trish for the first time. Such happy memories." Angie smiles. "Angie: I know." Victoria looks out into the forest. "Victoria: I miss her already." Victoria looks back at Angie. "Victoria: We formed a special bond. Ya know?" Angie smiles and she nods. "Angie: Yes. I know." "Victoria: I still miss my mother. I know it sounds crazy but I also formed a special bond with her." "Angie: Sweetie its natural that you were so close with them. Christy is your mother and Trish is your baby sister." Victoria looks out into the forest. "Victoria: Hm. Some big sister I am. You know. After seeing mom and Trish. It really makes me wonder if I'm adopted." "Angie: What do you mean?" "Victoria: Trish was a very pretty girl. And mom. Wow. I've never seen anyone as beauiful as her. Her long red hair. Her eyes. Everything about her. And look at me." "Angie: Victoria. Don't say that about yourself. Your a very pretty girl." Victoria looks back at Angie. "Victoria: Well. I guess if you say so. Hey. Check out what I did the other day." Victoria takes her right arm out of her jacket and she rolls her sleeve up to show a tattoo of a heart on her shoulder. It has Christy's name in the center. Angie smiles. "Angie: Aw. Victoria. That's so sweet." "Victoria: Yeah. I look at it as a way of respect and love. I'm gonna get another one on my left shoulder with Trish' name." Angie smile fades. "Angie: If you have the time. Taker believes this is the end of the line for us." Victoria puts her arm back in her sleeve. "Angie: Its not looking good at all. We have no one who can fight Lust. Trish is dead..." "Victoria: -Whispers- ...There's always a way." Angie looks confused. "Angie: What?" "Victoria: Something my mother said before she left. No matter how hopeless things may seem. There's always a way. Angie we can't give up. There's still a way. We just need to figure it out." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/17/2007 1:15a.m. Location: The Underworld Pl: Hades: 300,000. Christy: 5,000,000, Super Saiyan: 10,000,000 Hades smirks as he stares at Christy. "Hades: It took you 20 years to finally understand you made mistakes? You do understand what you put your kids through don't you?" "Christy: I am much more mature now than I was then. If I could go back and change the past I'd do it in a second...but I can't. So now I must fight to make things right." Hades laughs. "Hades: Its pointless for you to fight Christy. The seal can't be broken. Nothing can save Trish." "Christy: (I sure hope he's lying. I don't know what to do. All I can do is fight. I just need to get that stone.)" Christy stares Hades down with Saiyan's rage in her eyes. "Christy: Let's dance!" Christy charges Hades. Christy connects a punch to the gut. Hades holds his gut. Christy then connects a hard kick to the side of the head. Hades slams into the wall. Christy charges Hades. Hades phases behind Christy and he kicks her in the spine. Christy slams face first into the wall. Christy kicks off the wall and she flies at Hades. Christy kicks Hades in the gut. Hades flies back and he slams into a rock. Christy phases in front of Hades and she throws a punch. Hades phases behind Christy and she punches the rock and it shatters. Christy quickly turns to Hades. Hades punches Christy in the chest. Christy stays on her feet and she slides across the ground. Hades runs at Christy and he throws a clothesline. Christy ducks under it and she punches Hades in the gut. Hades holds his gut then he kicks Christy in the head. Christy slams into a sharp rock. Hades charges Christy and he throws a punch. Christy dodges it and she gets behind Hades and she locks in a sleeper hold. Hades grabs Christy's arm with both hands and he tries to pull it away but she's much too strong. "Christy: Give me the stone." "Hades: Never. You'll have to break me in half if you want it." Christy tightens her grip on the hold and she pulls Hades off the ground. "Christy: Then so be it!" Christy lifts Hades and she connects with a full nelson slam. Hades holds his neck as he gets up to one knee. Christy fires Charging Kamehameha. Hades is hit and he slams into the wall. Hades gets up and he charges Christy and he throws 15 punches. Christy blocks all of them. Hades then throws a kick at her head. Christy throws her arm up and she blocks it. Hades looks on in shock. Christy smirks and she takes his leg and she spins him around then she let's go and Hades slams head first into the wall. He goes 10 feet into the wall. Smoke raises from the rubble. Christy stands her ground. Hades fires a demon kamehameha from where he lays. Christy does a cartwheel dodgeing the attack. Hades gets up and he steps out of the rubble. Christy is no where to be seen. Hades smirks. Suddenly Hades is hit with a Chou Kamehameha. Hades gets up and he turns to Christy. "Hades: (This is unbelieveable. Her power is outragous!)" Hades fires another demon kamehameha. Christy does another cartwheel dodgeing it. Christy runs at Hades. She does a baseball slide between his legs and she spins around and she does a leg sweep. Hades falls to the ground. Christy kicks up and she connects a leg drop. Hades crawls away from her. He crawls over near a pit. Hades rolls over and he looks at Christy. Christy smirks as she looks at Hades. "Christy: What's the matter?...Am I too much for you to handle?" Hades gets up and he stands near the pit. "Hades: Don't get too cocky. You haven't won. As a matter of fact. I'm gonna seal your fate right now." Hades pulls out the glass stone that holds Trish' soul. He holds it out above the pit. Hades smiles. "Hades: Behold! Its time for Trish to suffer for her sins. Forever!" Christy's eyes widen. (Slow motion) (Into The Fire by Dokken) Hades drops the stone and it falls into the pit. Christy runs up to the pit and she dives head first into the pit. The glass stone lands on a ledge. It appears Christy isn't going to make it but she just manages to grab the ledge. (End slow motion) Christy looks down and flames shoot up near her feet. Restless souls of the condemned reach up to try and grab her. Christy looses her grip on the ledge and she starts to slide into the fire. Hades laugh echos throughout the Underworld. Christy closes her eyes "Christy: (I'm sorry for the mistakes I made. Trish. Victoria. Taker. Shawn. Hunter. I love you...Love)" Christy opens her eyes and she looks up at the ledge. "Christy: Yes. That's it!" Christy digs deep and she climbs the side of the pit and she reaches up and she grabs the ledge. Christy pulls herself up and she grabs the glass stone.

Hades smile fades. "Hades: What?! No! Nooo! Arghhh!" Christy climbs up out of the pit. (Chorus Learn To Fly by Foo Fighters) Christy looks at the glass stone. She lowers her head and she closes her eyes. She then holds the stone to her heart. Hades looks on. Suddenly the seal is broken. Christy opens her eyes and she looks at the stone. She then opens her hand and she holds it out and Trish' soul is free! Christy drops the stone and she looks at Hades. (Learn To Fly fades) "Hades: (She broke the seal! How?! How did she do it?! Hm. I'm gonna have to drain her.) Hades smirks. "Hades: Very well done Christy. That was impressive. Not many people would dive head first into the fire to save their kid." "Christy: Trish is my child. I love her and I'd do anything for her...Even die." Hades approches Christy. "Hades: Well. You've proven that your brave but...let's see how brave you are after this!" Hades digs his claws into Christy's face. Christy screams and she slowly drops to her knees. Her hair changes back to red as she looses Super Saiyan form. Hades laughs. "Hades: Yes...Yes! Suffer! Suffer!" Blood rolls down Christy's face and some drips off on her clothes while some hits the ground. Hades pulls his clawns out of her face. Christy's face is blood stained.

"Victoria: There's always a way. There's something we're missing. Its still possible to win this war. Aw come on. Think Victoria. Think...-sigh-" Victoria takes her socks off and she gets up. "Victoria: Guess I just might as well wash up. I ain't getting no sleep right now." Victoria walks into the bathroom and she closes the door.

"Victoria: Your alive?" "Trish: Yeah." "Victoria: How? I thought you was dead." Trish stands up. "Trish: I was." Victoria looks confused. Trish appears to be very disturbed. "Trish: I can't believe what I saw." Victoria walks over to Trish. "Victoria: What did you see?" "Trish: I was imprisoned in something by some kind of seal. A glass stone I think. I was taken to the Underworld and..." "Victoria: And...what?" "Trish: Victoria our mom is still alive." Victoria's eyes widen. "Victoria: What?" "Trish: Wrath and Lust. They lied. This whole time mom has been a prisoner in the Underworld." "Victoria: How do you know she's still alive?" "Trish: I saw her before I died. Last thing I remember was she kissed me then everything went black and the next thing I know is I was trapped inside the stone." "Victoria: How did you escape?" Trish smiles as she fights back the tears. "Trish: Mom. She fought Hades. To save me. She's a very skilled warrior. You should have seen her. It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. Hades saw he was beaten and he tried to do away with me by throwing me into the fire...But...Mom...She jumped...She jumped into the fire...to save me." Victoria embraces Trish. "Trish: I've...never felt love like this before. Its the most amazing thing I've ever felt. Do you understand how much she loves us?" "Victoria: More than we'll ever know." Trish steps back and she wipes her eyes. Victoria smiles. "Victoria: Hey. Go take yourself a warm shower. You'll feel better." Trish nods and she walks off into the back room and she gets some clean clothes then she walks into the bathroom and she closes the door. Victoria is all smiles. "Victoria: Mom is still alive. This is great! Heh. Look out Hades. This war isn't over yet." Victoria walks into the back room and she wakes Angie. "Angie: Hm...Victoria? What is it sweetie?" "Victoria: Angie. I'm sorry to wake you but I couldn't wait to tell you...Trish is alive!" Angie's eyes widen. "Angie: Oh my God. Are you serious?" "Victoria: Yes. And our mom is still alive. Turns out Wrath and Lust lied to us." Angie smiles. "Angie: That's great!" "Victoria: Yeah. Now I just need some way to get Trish to channle into her hidden power. I need to make her angry." "Angie: Good luck with that." "Victoria: Thanks. See ya in the morning." Victoria walks back into the living room and she flops on the sofa. "Victoria: (Hm. Trish has been eating alot recently. Looks like she may be putting on some weight.)" Victoria smirks. "Victoria: (Maybe if I insult her weight. Maybe it will be enough. She seems to be sensitive about her weight. It won't hurt anything. I'll try later today at breakfast. Anything to get her training again.)" Victoria closes her eyes and drifts off to sleep.

Trish punches Victoria in the eye. Victoria falls to the floor and she rubs her right eye. "Trish: Oh. Victoria. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I seriously don't know where that came from." Victoria smirks as she looks up at Trish. "Victoria: That's what I'm talking about. You need to channle into that." "Trish: What are you talking about?" "Victoria: You need to channle into your inner power." "Trish: I really would like to fight for mom. Just like she fought for me." Trish extends her hand and Victoria accepts and Trish helps her up.

She breaths heavy as she stares toward the ground. (Scene shifts) Christy is bound by chains. The chains connect to both her wrists and ankles. Her shirt has been ripped from her body. Only a black bra covers her upper body and her jeans have been cut off back to well above her knees. Cuts are all over her body from head to toe. Hades steps out of the shadows and he stares at Christy. A huge smirk on his face as he stares at her. "Hades: Was it worth it Christy? Hm?! Was it worth it?"

"Hades: You can lie all you want Christy...but I know the truth. You want your freedom more than anything. I know you want to be free Christy. I can see it...I can feel it." "Christy: That may be something I want...but its just not worth selling out my kids. You'll never understand demon. Your kind can't understand." Hades paces around and he stares at Christy. "Hades: I'm gonna give you one last chance Christy. I'll give you your freedom. If you do something for me." "Christy: I told you. I'm not gonna betray any of them. Freedom...or no freedom. I'll stay here and die before I'll do anything to hurt any of them." Hades smirks. "Hades: This time they are left out of this.

Do what you do best. Unleash lust upon her. Help yourself become stronger." "Lust: Well. You see sire. It turns out that's not gonna work. I've been trying that." "Hades: What do you mean? How can it not work?" "Lust: Well. It turns out that Trish has been using masturbation to help her control her sexual emotions and...as we know sire. I only grow stronger when unmarried people engage in sex." Hades anger builds. "Hades: This is unbelieveable. This is simply unbelieveable." Christy raises her head and she smirks. "Christy: Seems like you guys are in a real pickle. Trish has learned to control her emotions." Christy looks at Lust. "Christy: Good luck...Your gonna need it." Christy smirks as she stares at Lust.

No problem." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12/18/2007 11:00a.m. Location: Undertaker's house Angie sits on the sofa watching tv. She hears a car pull up outside and a door close. After a few seconds someone steps up on the porch and the front door opens and Victoria walks in. "Angie: Hey. Did you get it?" Victoria closes the door and she looks at Angie with a look of disgust. "Victoria: Yeah I got it but you wouldn't believe what I had to go through to get it. I mean come on. Just a simple trip to the mall gets ruined." "Angie: What happened?" "Victoria: First it was the hot roddin jackass from hell who was just inches away from hitting me. Seriously the guy can't read. A freakin stop sign right in front of his face. I bout owed you $5000 or more in damages. Then when I get to the mall I have a heck of a time finding a parking spot. Then when I finally make it inside. I have to diss 4 or 5 horny guys just to get to the sports store. Then I ask the guy. Look. Do you have any of these hoodies left. He says .Naw we sold out yesterday. But I wanted to see for myself. I go check it out and low and behold there it is. A whole rack of them. I take it up to him and shove it under his nose and ask. What's this?" Victoria smiles and laughs. "Victoria: Guy never said a word. Rang me up and I was on my way but that's not the end of this story yet. No. I have to diss the same 4 or 5 horny guys again. The ride home was alot smoother." "Angie: Well I'm glad you got it. I hate that you had to go through all that." "Victoria: Look don't worry about it. Like I said yesterday. I'd do anything for Trish. By the way is she up yet?" Angie nods. "Angie: Yeah. She's in the bathroom changing." "Victoria: Alright. I'm gonna take her to lunch then I thought we'd go and hang out at the mall for alittle bit." "Angie: Sounds great. Try to be back by 6p.m." Victoria nods. "Victoria: Alright." Trish walks out of the bathroom. Trish smiles and waves at Victoria. "Trish: Hi." "Victoria: Hey Trish. Get your shoes on. I'm gonna take you to lunch then we're gonna go hang out at the mall."

"Guy: Take your order." Victoria looks at the menu. She then looks at Trish then she looks at Trish' stomach then she looks back at the guy. "Victoria: I'll have a 20 piece nugget."

Victoria slides a few packages of BBQ sauce over to Trish. "Trish: Hey Victoria...Do you think I can do this?" "Victoria: Do what?" "Trish: Beat Lust." Victoria looks at Trish. "Victoria: Trish. I'm being honest when I say I'm not 100% sure. That is gonna fall into your hands. Its going to come down to how bad you want to beat him." "Trish: Oh Victoria. I want to beat him really bad. I'm just...scared." "Victoria: Scared? Of what?" "Trish: What if I fail? Then Hades wins. I don't want to disappoint mom." "Victoria: Trish. You can't let that effect you. When it comes to war we have to take it one battle at a time. We can't sit around and worry about what happenes if we lose. There's always a way. So you just focus on Lust." "Trish: I still don't know Victoria. I just...have this odd feeling..." "Victoria: Trish...I believe in you...Now you need to believe in yourself."

"Angie: Its for you." Victoria leans against the wall in the doorway to the kitchen. Her arms folded over her chest and the Cowboys hoodie is over her shoulder. "Angie: Happy birthday Trish." Victoria smiles. "Trish: Oh my goodness. Thank you so much Angie." Trish embraces Angie. "Angie: Your very welcome sweetie." "Victoria: Hey." Trish and Angie look at Victoria. "Victoria: Don't forget your present." Victoria takes the hoodie off her shoulder and she tosses it to Trish. Trish catches and she looks at it. "Trish: Its the hoodie I wanted." "Victoria: You better like it. I had to go through hell to get it." Trish looks at Victoria. "Trish: I love it. Thank you." Victoria smirks. "Victoria: Your welcome." Victoria turns around to walk into the living room. She stops then she looks back at Trish. "Victoria: Oh. And you better not eat too much cake." Victoria smirks and she pats her stomach then she turns and she walks into the living room. Trish and Angie smile as they look at each other. "Trish: What would we do without her?" "Angie: I don't know." Trish and Angie laugh. "Angie: Hey. I need to go down to the store and pick up a few things. Is there anything you want?" "Trish: Um. I don't know. Can I go with you?" "Angie: Sure. If you want too." "Trish: Alright." Trish walks into the living room and she puts her jacket back on. "Victoria: Where ya going?" "Trish: Going to the store with Angie."

Trish follows close behind. Trish stands by Victoria. Victoria looks over the meat. "Victoria: I'm getting tired of turkey and chicken sandwiches." Victoria looks around. Trish turns around right at the time a guy walks by her. Trish turns back and she looks at him. Trish watches him for a second then she turns back to Victoria. "Victoria: Alright. I think I'm getting an idea." Trish then turns back and she looks at the guy and her emotions start running wild. "Trish: (Oh no. Not here. Wait until I get home.)" Suddenly Lust's voice booms inside Trish' head. "Lust: (Go ahead Trish. Go talk to him. He'll have sex with you in a second. Go ahead. Go talk to him. You know you want to do it.)" "Trish: (No...No. I won't...I won't do it!)" Trish turns back to Victoria. "Lust: (Come on Trish. Remember the last time? It felt good didn't it? Forget about what Victoria told you. She doesn't know what she's missing." Trish starts to sweat as she battles with Lust. She glances at Victoria. "Lust: (Trish. You may think you know everything about Victoria. But you don't. She hasn't told you the whole truth. You know why she doesn't understand sex?)" Trish looks at the floor. The tip of her hoodie is wet with sweat. She wipes her forehead. "Lust: (Because she's a lesbian!)" Trish' eyes widen and she looks over at Victoria. Victoria is still looking over the meat. "Trish: (What?! That...That can't be.)" "Lust: (Oh but it is Trish. I bet you didn't know she's been with...a few girls.)" "Trish: (No. It can't be true. Not Victoria.)" "Lust: (Yes Trish. Ignore what Victoria told you. She wants you to see things her way. She wants to force her ways upon you. That's why she told you sex is overrated. You know being a lesbian is wrong...right Trish?)" Trish slowly turns her head back to the floor. "Lust: (Having sex is something that's normal...You are normal...Arn't you Trish?)" Trish continues to stare at the floor. "Trish: (That's right...Having sex is something that's normal...For married people. Not when your doing it with some random hobo on the street...I refuse demon!)" "Lust: (Come on Trish. Don't forget its healthy for you as well.)" "Trish: (So is masturbation.)" "Victoria: Ah ha. I got it." Victoria picks up a pack of burgers. "Victoria: We're grilling tonight." Victoria smiles as she looks over at Trish. Trish looks at Victoria. "Trish: Sounds great." Trish and Victoria turn around. "Victoria: Alright. Go find Angie and I'll catch up." Victoria playfully smacks Trish on the butt and she walks off. Trish looks at Victoria as she walks on. "Trish: Okay." "Lust: (You see that? She smacked you on the butt didn't she?) "Trish: (Yes...Yes she did.)" "Lust: (She likes it Trish. It would just make her day if you smacked her.)" Trish shakes her head. "Trish: Argh. This can't be true." Trish walks off and she finds Angie. Angie looks at Trish. "Angie: Hi Trish. Where's Victoria?" "Trish: She's getting something. She'll be here soon." "Angie: Okay. I'm finished. I hope she hurry's." "Trish: Angie...Can I ask you something?" Angie looks at Trish. "Angie: Sure." "Trish: Do you think..." Trish spots Victoria approaching them. Victoria walks up to Angie. "Victoria: Here Angie. Me and Trish. We're grilling tonight." Angie smiles. "Angie: Well alright. I'm on my way to the check out. If you want anything else. Now's the time to get it." Angie looks at Trish. "Angie: What was you saying Trish?" "Trish: Oh. Never mind." Angie nods. "Angie: Okay." Angie walks on and Trish looks at Victoria. Victoria smiles as she looks over at Trish. "Victoria: Man this is gonna be great. I haven't had a good burger in forever...Say what's wrong with you?" Trish shakes her head. "Trish: Nothing." "Victoria: Aw. Come on. Your sweating like a stuffed pig." "Trish: Its nothing Victoria." Victoria shrugs. "Victoria: Alright. Far be it for me to try and help." Suddenly Angie screams. Trish and Victoria look toward the front of the store. "Victoria: Hey! That was Angie!" Victoria and Trish rush to the front of the store. Angie's already checked out and Lust stands before her. Trish looks at Lust then she looks at Angie and she sees the fear in her eyes. Saiyan's rage appears in Trish' eyes. Victoria starts to speak up. "Trish: Hey!" Victoria looks at Trish and she looks on in as Trish approaches Lust. Lust and Angie look at Trish. "Lust: Well well. We meet at last Trish." "Trish: Leave her alone. Its me you want." Lust approaches Trish. Victoria walks over to Angie. "Victoria: Go on get out of here. I'll stay here with Trish. We'll be fine." "Angie: Okay." Angie leaves the store. Trish and Lust stare down. "Lust: Why are you so angry with me Trish? I thought I was your friend. After all. I have given you alot of pleasure." "Trish: Your right. I can't lie. I did enjoy those nights. But that's all behind me...Thanks to Victoria and Angie I've learned to control my sexual emotions. So let it be known that unless I'm married. From this day forward that I will never have sex again! No more!" (A clip of a crowd is seen behind Trish. The crowd is in black and white and they stand up and cheer.) Victoria stands back and she watches. "Victoria: (This is it Trish. Its time for you to find out just want your made of. Don't forget your training. Show him no mercy. Believe in yourself.)" Lust smirks. "Lust: You understand Trish. That no matter if your married or not...Its still the same." Trish smiles. "Trish: Thanks to Angie I've learned the difference between lust and love...So save your lies!" Lust frowns. "Lust: (Curses. She's learned the truth. Crap. I've got no choice but to fight her here. I must kill her. I can't let her escape. I must not fail this mission.)" Lust throws a punch.

She couldn't be a lesbian...could she?...Naw. She's too cool for that...Its not that I mind her seeing me. It wouldn't bother me. Its just that...What if she really is a lesbian?...It just seems kinda odd that she wanted to help me take my clothes off...of course I do have a broken ankle...and it will be kinda hard...on the other hand...she's smacked my butt twice and she said herself that she doesn't get worked up over sex.

"Trish: I have a pretty darn good reason." "Angie: What?" "Trish: Well...I think she might be...a lesbian." "Angie: Well. Sweetie. What would give you that idea?" "Trish: Just some things I've heard and by her actions and words. Its driving me crazy Angie. I'm just gonna have to come out and ask her but I don't know how. I mean. That's a very personal question." "Angie: Maybe so but once you explain your reason to her. She'll understand." "Trish: You think so?" Angie smiles. "Angie: I know so...Come on let's get you cleaned up."
